The app in question seems to be the outlet of Guo Wengui, a fugitive businessman wanted for corruption charges in China. (Whether the charges are valid or not I have zero idea. Incidentally I learned about this guy from the news of Steve Bannon’s arrest on this guy’s yacht.) So stating that this app is merely critical of Chinese government is lacking quite a bit of context.

- girvo 6y agoConsidering how often the Chinese government outright fabricates charges and “crimes” committed by those who oppose it directly, you’ll have to forgive me for being less than credulous regarding what he’s been accused. This is how the CCP takes down dissidents.
- oefrha 6y agoThe guy is now entangled in fraud in the U.S. (see Bannon link) and his outlets have been fabricating and disseminating election misinformation targeting Biden like crazy, so I see a pattern there.
