Speculation. But there's no reason to suspect otherwise. They're not some rebel information outpost, they're a corporation who are going to follow the laws required of them to do business.
They're not beholden to US laws and I can't imagine any Chinese laws requiring them to snitch to the great satan
If they wanna stay on the Play and Apple store they're going to comply with US law enforcement.
They’re gonna do what’s best for the Chinese people. Running afoul of the US govt does not benefit Chinese people. Why would they do it? There is a fair amount of risk involved and very little reward.
