I totally agree. But there is a point you may not aware.

Government, law enforcement and court are not separated in China, they all belonging to the same central government. So if you really want a court order, they’ll issue one quickly.

That’s the tricky situation. Companies must obey local laws, but local laws are built on behalf of central government, and court exists for protecting central government.

I guess you have to use Linux because Microsoft does the same thing. Azure China is isolated from the rest and hold by a Chinese company; Windows and Office 365 has Chinese specific version; Skype is not available etc.
