Totally get the logic, just wondering if customers would feel weird if a company they worked with didn't have an "office".

I wonder how their customers reacted to this, especially as a b2b company.

Agree. To add, if we accepted this as the attribution source of truth, there would be large conflicts of interest from companies like Google who own an ad network and also Chrome. They would basically claim all Adwords traffic is awesome.

Google, FB, Amazon, Microsoft is severely limited in China as examples.

This article makes a good point about "cheating". I personally don't like that word here, but by blocking other companies like Amazon, Google, FB, etc from entering in China, then copying those companies and selling the produ

How does this work? You don't need to disclose secret sauce per se, just enough to understand the legality and robustness of using it.

More like governments are at "war" and all the big corporations caught in the middle of trade are the "weapons".

China can distribute its goods to the world, but the world cannot distribute its goods to it. I think this is part of the issue. i.e. Huawei can sell its tech to the US, but Google/Amazon/FB is more or less blocked in China. Count
