Recently the Flight Simulator 2020 was withdraw from distribution/selling in China (only country listed as not available for sale) and many folks in China can no longer access OneDrive (even over VPN, they claim it is the US side shutdown it down) in the past several weeks, and now just today Microsoft sent out new terms of service for subscribers of its Office 365 in China highlighting that it will not be a fault for refunds if the US government request that Microsoft ceases doing business in China etc.
Just this morning, Apple is being pressured to remove TikTok and WeChat from the apple store in advance (much earlier) of/than the 45 day grace period indicated by Trumps two seperate Executive Orders...
Between this and the TikTok/WeChat ban, its clear the writing is on the wall...
To give idea how fast things are developing, I posted on r/sino about the WeChat and TikTok bans merely three weeks ago and back then many were in disbelief that WeChat could possibly get affected as well....
I'm saying it now, Microsoft is being ordered to completely remove itself from China... I wouldn't be surprised if they sent an update that crashed everyone's windows 10 in China making it unusable on the way out.
The speed and breath of such a decoupling can only point towards upcoming kinetic war.
