China is a communist regime. They can do whatever the hell they want, why would american companies spend any time conforming to their demands when they can pull the rug out from under them at any time. Also, they would be under their total control forever.

American companies do it for money. Companies like major movie studios, sports leagues, operating system vendors, search engine providers

Many american companies seem to collaborate successfully with this communist regime including but not limited to Apple, Microsoft, Amazon. Even Google still has Google Ads platform operating in China.
