I think that’s just evidence that this isn’t an issue they ever cared about.
They were planning to just censor whatever the CCP wanted from the beginning, their “mistake” was extending this to a US account because they don’t have the granularity to separate out mainland China users (which itself should be disturbing since they’re clearly not walling things off to protect accounts the CCP shouldn’t have access to).
They’re in this position because they don’t think what they’re doing is unethical in the first place.
I still think it’s wrong, I wouldn’t have been in China in the first place because of this.
