Tbf I think those are all banned/heavily censored to some degree in China. Google maps doesn’t work in China for example.
But when the United States starts doing the same thing it does weaken the narrative that China is some authoritarian hell scape unless people are willing to accept the United States is as well.
If we can agree that this is a problem, then all American social media companies should be banned as well, which I’m not entirely opposed to. What people are taking issue with is that this level of logic is only applied against China, and not American companies, which are guilty of the same crimes.

Look at it from outside China and the US and try to find the difference.
