That's not something that's currently planned, and even if it did, it would take years. Besides, it wouldn't apply anyway; Akamai's China business was already routed through a mainland China company, as required by Chinese law.
It generally takes a long time to change the text of a formal requirement. Changing the meaning of the existing text doesn't take so long.
