Except China never banned American companies.
- NicoJuicy 4y agoYes they ban foreign companies. All companies need a Chinese partnership to enter China. Eg. Azure needs to let someone else handle the infrastructure there. The only exclusion i know of ( i think) is Tesla, because China is very interested in it's tech and for it's goal of EV dominance.
- trasz 4y agoThey don’t, there is plenty of western companies there. And yes, they need a local branch, same way non-US companies need US branch to conduct business there.
- NicoJuicy 4y agoSure, that's why someone else is handling Azure in China instead of Microsoft :)
- trasz 4y agoAmerican law forces all US-controlled companies to relay user data to various govern agencies without any real oversight. EU is protecting their citizens too. Even US is doing the same, see TikTok.
