Today 90% of computers in China run Windows. This is 5% more than 3 years ago, when the party announced its support for Kylin Linux to explicitly get rid of American software stacks.

This is the true power of Microsoft. They can ban virtually every software company, but not Microsoft.

Don't use Windows.

This is not true. Windows is more like 30% share in China. There has been a major shift away from Windows in China for a while towards some domestically produced Linux variants. Government computers can no longer run Windows, this was a plan 10 years in the making.

Obviously this is just looking at computers, if you extend this to includes phones (which is the only device for many Chinese), then Windows is nowhere.
