The biggest companies in the world do worry about the regulations of the areas they trade-in.

I am not sure if that's why Musk reversed it but just saying banning links to your competitions is sure to invite multiple anti-trust investigations.
Yes, the governments of China, the US the EU and elsewhere have great power over the tech companies in their jurisdictions. Look no further than Apple having to use the USB-C connector in places of its lightning connector in the EU by December 2024 and the banning of Facebook in China.
