If you're not arguing about comparison then don't state this as if it's any different from the US. Because you make it sound that way. Or do you think that if tomorrow OpenAI came out vocally supporting the DSA - that suddenly they wouldn't see lots of barriers rise up out of nowhere?

Retaliation is different than what happens in China. In China, the DeepSeek CEO drafts a press release about Taiwan's independence and he's promptly fired and sent to prison.
