China can ask for the source, but I don't see any US firm agreeing.
Sure, that automatically disqualifies them from selling to any China banks, which means all the money that would have gone to foreign software companies now go to local Chinese software companies, thus kickstarting their growth and eventually they will grow big enough to compete outside of China.
It would not surprise me if that was the real goal here.
