They are both entitled to their decision. And I certainly wouldn't blame either X or Google for leaving in that situation. Even though I disagree with you it's the same circumstances.

What I'm saying is that everyone loses when that happens.

Google won quite handsomely by shutting down in China. Remember that this was 2018, shortly before the social justice movement reached its fever pitch. At the time, Google employees would have burned the place down over project Dragonfly.

As for Chinese customers, I believe their tech giants are competitive regarding Google search. But if the Chinsese tech giants werent competitive at least the Chinese consumers would be shielded from Google's monopolistic abuse ;)
