They spun off a separate instance of iCloud for China which is fully compliant with local regulations (i.e. backdoored), but that instance is operated by a third party so I guess Apple can wave their hands and say it's technically not their backdoor. "We will never sell you out unless access to a huge market is on the line" doesn't have quite the same ring to it.
