    I think it's because you have done it inadvertently. If you select options like 3d imagery or labels and there are other options, it will overlay the satellite image with whatever you have chosen. That is a function of the app, not something China controls. I don't have the Google Earth app on my iMac, but if I select it under maps and look at it in 2D, there are no overlays.
