Not the person you asked but I suspect their comment is along the lines of how Google employees threw a fit when learning about working on a military project (Project Maven) fairly recently but didn't make any noticeable objections when Google was like "why yes China, we will gladly build a custom censored search engine just for you" as well as opening the Google AI China Center which you can basically guarantee is lousy with agents of the Chinese government and honestly it would even be realistic to make every Chinese national that was an employee a government 'spy'. 'Let us debrief you on a regular basis everything you do, as well as save copies of all of your work to hand over to us, or you family goes to prison' kinda thing.
