While true, it’s pretty asinine to hold companies operating in China accountable for complying with Chinese law. It sucks, but they aren’t just going to abandon the Chinese ~cash cow~ market.
It’s important that we build incentives for companies to avoid harming people, and hold them accountable when they do it anyway. Profit is not a valid excuse.
