They have been waiting for an excuse to probe Apple, now they have it. Expect Apple to be removed from China within 5 years.

                Now I am no China fanboy, but with these ridiculous recent events of Western politics and our supposedly "free" market, I hope this stab by China can awaken us to reduce lobbies and have actually fair market conditions.

                    And China is not the like those countries being shown in hollywood action movies where people live in ricefields and worship a deektaytor leader. xD

                          Yes, yes, yes 😄😄😄

                            ThatOneWeabo, 05 Feb 2025More countries pressuring Apple, good.Normally I would agree, companies doing bad, no matter if Apple, Google, Microsoft and so on should be punished.

                            But not because US has a idiot of a president...

                              Trump caused this, I think.

                                two governments fight, and who suffers the most? The average person.

                                    Mewing Sigma, 05 Feb 2025This war will never end. The US should just give up. US started it, so everyone is retaliating. What did US expect?

                                      "expected response to tariffs" except they did this to nvidia in December before the tariffs, and made the same action to Google also prior

                                        Good that's what he gets for supporting GOP, referring to Tim for lending the goo a lot of money. He's a fool. I'm glad china is now going be probing apple (crapple) and Google
