How can one speak of "rule" of law in an autocratic non-democratic country? The Chinese people in no way consented to anything like this "law", and to follow it is an act of oppression against the Chinese people.
Would Pinchai gas Jews in Nazi Germany, murder gays in Uganda, and stone schoolgirls in villages in his native India to follow the "rule of law"?
- echevil 8y agoWell, from the point of views of a normal Chinese citizen, Google’s presence is always welcome. It better be censored or it’ll be kicked out pretty soon. Though people doesn’t like these censorship, vast majority of Chinese simply doesn’t care at all. As a recent NY times report mentioned, even when young people are given the tools to bypass the censorship, few of them actually used it, and almost nobody used it to access western news reports. Censorship is not great but it’s no where close to be comparable with gassing Jews or murdering gays, and fighting censorship simply has super low priority for most Chinese. HN can be accessed from China freely but very few Chinese come here or even knows abou it. Otherwise the sentiments in the comments would be very different :)
