this kind of stuff happen a lot both ways for services. because of geopolitics, china firewall and other context, companies try to be from other places (either in china, our outside, similar maybe now with Russia, unsure) so they can keep the market or try to.
I remember workin for a US vendor, we had some proxies in china for our customers there to proxy auto updates because the US vendors servers got filtered on their border often leading to broken updates.
I would assume similar context. With GPU its easy for the mind to wander towards data espionage, but the same holds for CPU and _usually_ its more benign / normal business stuff going on.
(not saying it doesnt happen ofc, but most businesses just wanna do business)
