Yes - Startbucks, Walmart, McDonalds and many other International companies are NOT banned in China. One thing these companies that are not banned have in common is that they do NOT threaten the social order of the country. Could Starbucks help start a revolution, like Facebook could? No, that is why Startbucks is not banned and Facebook is. You know, there are many local competitors of Starbucks, so why isn't government banning Starbucks to protect Chinese companies? Because they don't care about opinions of people or local_entrepreneurs. Their goal is not protectionism. Uber will not be banned, since it is harmless to government.
