China already realized the danger of its National Security issue being compromised long ago by relying on Western tech, by building its own Beidou Navigation Satellite system, reinforcing strict operation procedures for western apps operating in China and also getting rid of western computer platforms and equipment in later years.
China has a big advantage in that even iPhones used by the Chinese are made in China and inserting backdoors for spying cannot be done discreetly. Moreover, China makes more mobile phones than what its own citizen's needed, which makes phones made by others less in demand in China or not at all. There was a report that Apple was on the point of trying to dump India made sub-standard iPhones, unsaleable in the EU, on to the Chinese market years ago, which the Chinese resisted from buying altogether. That plan failed.
The whole Chinese Government computer system is relying on the 'Kylin' system, developed by the National University of Defense Technology in the People's Republic of China in 2001. The windows operating system has been phased out nationally, with the 'Harmony' platform developed by Huawei being used more widely by the public. Of course, what China was able to do cannot be done by others, that have to still rely on Western platforms like 'Windows' and relying on the GPS system for military applications that could be shut off by the USA. Iran was using that lately and has already migrated to the Chinese Beidou Navigation system, allowing it to target Israeli installations at ease. In an earlier encounter in 2024, Iran's use of the GPS system was jammed by the Israelis, meaning that the USA had a hand under pressure by the Israelis.
