I mean... Honestly, if I were Chinese - given the governments past I'd feel safer in SF than China[1][2][3]. Basically, it's similar to Iran or other states where you have to praise the government publicly & constantly - or they will find you, capture you, and probably imprison or kill you. I think one interesting thing I saw at GTC two years ago, was a Chinese firm was building software to watch / track where everyone went through a city. Including what they were doing. This is not a "safety tool" it's a surveillance tool. Sure it can be used to _maybe_ track down attackers after it happens. However, it can be used more effectively to track potential or known dissidents or track what the average person in the population is doing.
