How it's different from same implicit Terms for accounts in USA?

Perhaps in China agency needs court order? :-)

They won't share the data with the NSA, as the GCHQ and other agencies would :)

Another stupid NSA comment. Well, since you made the joke... I would bet that it is legally easier for the Chinese govt to get to your data, and they might be willing to share some of it with our govt for the right favors.

I'm not arguing that it's easier or harder for the Chinese government to get your data in China than it is for GCHQ to get your data in Britain. I'm only pointing out that they are less likely to give all that data to the NSA.

This could be important if you care about which government is reading your data.

Yeah, sure if you want to believe that. Let's hope the bad guys are that dumb, it'll make them easier to catch. We should just outsource the NSA to China so people feel safer, and it will cost less money.
