Why is it being rolled out in China first?

  Because China told them to after protests last month or so. This did not just happen in the last two days. This is arguably a good setting too, as there are plenty of stories of people in other parts of the world who AirDrop lewd/violent/disgusting pictures to anyone around with their phone set to “allow anyone”. It’s happened on planes, for example. But this is a tool people figured out they could use for a different purpose: spreading info during protests. So now it’s caught up in politics. For all the “evil Apple”, they’ve been better than others. But they are a total hostage. The vast majority of the stuff is in China. Piss off the CCP and the company practically dies overnight. Yes, they should have fixed that long ago. But here we are.
