 Here's a 560 character tweet incorporating $AAPL and more conversational language:

Word is China's been banning iPhones everywhere - nuclear power plants, hospitals in Inner Mongolia, you name it. Employees are saying it's to stop U.S. spying through iOS security holes. These informal bans go back years for some agencies. It's Beijing's way of telling $AAPL and other American companies that tech restrictions are getting real intense real fast amid the sour relations with Washington. For Apple, it's gotta be pretty concerning given China's like 15% of their revenue. With how things are going between the superpowers, $AAPL's gonna have a heck of a time thriving in that vital market. As tensions rise, the iPhone maker faces new hurdles to keep growing in China. What's next?
