In China. In the other 194 countries in the world, this isn't true.
Intentionally ignoring millions of Apple customers is a No-True-Scotsman.

Fair.
Do you have any suggestions for any alternatives that are better in regard to user privacy?

[1] says "the encryption keys are also stored in China, raising the possibility the Chinese government could gain access to it"; nothing even close to "Apple has given the iCloud encryption keys of millions of Chinese users to the Chinese government" (my emphasis).
Except that Apple has given the iCloud encryption keys of millions of Chinese users to the Chinese government [1], after forcing users to move their data to the Chinese data centers [2]. This gives the Chinese government access to Apple user photos, docs, messages, and other user data at rest, demonstrating that Apple is more for-profit than for-privacy.
