Does Rossman have any presence in China? If not, and if the files are hosted outside China, there's nothing China can do.

Right. By their argument it seems like China can get fucked because what are they gonna do, kidnap him and bring him to China to face charges?

These particular files are hosted on GitHub, which is owned by Microsoft, which currently enjoys the ability to do business in China. There are probably things China can do in this case.

You mean get Microsoft to take it down? And then it goes back up on a self-hosted git repo? This does not enable Bambu, Microsoft, or anyone else to sue Rossman in China.
