Nothing. The point is first, they shouldn't be able to do it for devices already sold.
Second, Apple is the one developing technologies to make phones jails even without goverment looking. If Apple hadn't done it for past years and China would force them now, then still next couple of generations of devices would be trivial to jailbrake, beacuse those locks won't be as mature.
Makes sense.
