An entrepreneur such as Jack Ma even if bursting with patriotism might feel that Xi's preference for a "wolf" China has made it difficult for himself and other like him to act outside China & now regulators want to erect obstacles to action inside China.
If, by the way, the PRC acts against its own digital monopolies, I hope the US will be shamed to act against its own

The challenge for us, I submit to assembled sages, is not to bust up or punish or tech giants but rather to subtly reposition them as part of the American technology sphere as it confronts a Chinese technology sphere. We need to gradually persuade them to become better USA team players. Microsoft, for example, is responsible for training some of China's best AI scientists, according to the new book, China's Quest for Foreign Technology. Threatening our tech giants with dismemberment would not create the right climate to get them to recalibrate their behavior.
Well, Facebook and Google don't have that many because they've essentially been kept out. But Microsoft, Intel, AWS, Apple, Cisco and others helped build the Great Firewall and have contributed mightily to China's technological emergence and employ, directly or indirectly, hundreds of thousands of people in China.

I wonder how many tens of thousands of engineers MS, Google , FB etc. have in China, directly employed and contracted?
