Technically speaking, Apple placing iCloud services for users in China on CCP-controlled hardware (as required for their continued operation in China) is also a “state-sponsored attack”.
Not that they have a choice, given that their most profitable product lines are all basically 95%+ manufactured in China by Chinese nationals working for Chinese companies.

Apple by nature can’t have adversarial relationships with the US or Chinese governments or they’d get squashed like a bug. One might even argue they have a fiduciary duty to not pick fights with city hall.
