  • Let me tell how how much people actually follow laws in China.

    I was born while the One Child Policy was in effect. My mother already gave birth to my older brother. Basically, my existence is illegal.

    As you can see, clearly I’m not dead. They didn’t manage to kill me, just demanded my parents paid a massive fine and denied legal papers until they did so.

    Honestly if you just browse and don’t post anything too serious, are they really gonna go after everyone who use a VPN. I mean, say even if just 1% uses a VPN. That’s 1,400,000 people. Are they gonna lock up a million people? Really? Surely they have bigger fishes to catch. (Edit: 1% of 1.4 billion is actually 14 million, good luck locking that many people lolz)

    As for control of information, internarional phone calls aren’t blocked, you can send letters. My mom regularly call my aunts (aka: her sisters) in China. I heard the Covid QR codes being mentioned, afaik, the didn’t lose their teaching jobs nor ever got arrested.

    The overwhelming majority wouldn‘t even know how.

    It’s like adblocking. Do you know anyone irl that use adblockers? Seriously, I don’t know anyone that does except like maybe 1 perdon.

    But here we are, on a platform where practically everyone uses adblockers.

    Or in another analogy. Mainstream social media is like inside the GFW and Lemmy is like using VPN to bypass it.

    TLDR: Okay sorry if my point isn’t concise, I guess my point is: NPCs will just follow the wind, those who have the will to dig deeper will probably be able to bypass the censorship (provided that it’s not completely cut off from the outside internet)
