So you also have a problem with Microsoft, Twitter, Facebook, Google, as well as numerous other companies.
Twitter, Facebook, and Google are all blocked in China because they won't confirm to the demands of the government. I visit this place 3 to 4 times a year. I have to have a VPN to connect to social media.

Google actually loses billions of dollars annually by not having any of its services in China. There is no Gmail, YouTube, Google maps , Google search or Google play on any of the 100s of millions of android phones in China.
They actually have morals and pulled their services instead of caving to the Communists Chinese government's censorship of the internet.
While Apple does have a responsibility to its share holders to maximize profit ,you have to ask what you are willing to compromise for money.
Shame on Apple and Kudos to the other billion dollar tech conglomerates whom have not caved to the Communists.
The one thing I hate about capitalism is that everything is for sale even morals and integrity can be purchased if the price is right.
