Not even close. It's destroying the bullshit lies they've been building for the last 20 years. You'll bitch either way, your house burns down because they're lying about a USB C charger being safe, or the price goes up $5 or less.
I don't blame them at all, China lies a shit ton about everything. Building safety, Covid deaths, GDP, hell they draw their new borders in crayon. And no one calls them out because if you do, your ass is black bagged, period. They have no freedom of speech to contest anything, there are no non CCP run newspapers or TV news programs.
The US companies go there because they know the shit product will "pass" certification there, or they can pay money to make it pass. The entire country is basically driven by bribes. Hell it's customary there to brib....I mean "gift" your surgeon at a hospital money so you have a higher chance to survive.
