Things got far more worse in China right now.
Baidu Tieba, which could be considered as Reddit for China, just made all posts before 2017-01-01 inaccessible. And a number of other online forums are doing the same thing due to political reasons.
- cbluth 7y agowould you elaborate on the political reasons?
