Apple to set up its first data center in China ~ Billion dollar investment
That billion and change would be better invested at home IMO.

The US tech group’s new facility in Guizhou will be jointly operated with a Chinese internet company, as part of a $1bn investment in the southwestern province.


Announcing the relocation of mainland Chinese customers’ iCloud data from the US, Apple sought to head off potential security concerns from its tens of millions of users in the region. 


Apple already complies with legally valid requests for data from law enforcement authorities around the world, including China.

Meanwhile, so many other big hitters are bringing operations and jobs home.

Dicey choice, my personal loathing of Apple aside.
