You must be living under the rock if you don't know many products has been banned in China for many years, notably but not restricted to Facebook, Google, Twitter. https://www.gadgetsnow.com/slideshows/10-popular-apps-and-we...

Apple's data in China is handled by China government affiliated entity https://technode.com/2018/01/10/apple-icloud-guizhou/ . China's typical play book in tech field is to have the original products banned and have their own copycat flourish.
