It is still significantly harder to enact censorship on a wide scale as china is trying to do, than it is to simply change 2 app stores.
The stuff that china is doing, is much more difficult. It uses a lot of resources, and is not perfect.
I would rather more barriers be put up, so as to make censorship more difficult, wherever possible.
And making phones more open is another such barrier, that makes censorship more difficult.
Rights are not binary. Oppression and censorship is a spectrum, and taking actions against such oppression makes the oppression less effective, even if some oppression still happens.
