Virtually every country suffers from online disinformation crises. China is one of a handful that has it mostly under wraps. The GFW has been enormously successful in this regard. Societies with high amounts of internal distrust will not be able to compete in this century. They will fall apart. That is why the US is taking it so seriously and cracking down on disinformation (see Google this week). The GFW must have been visionary if Western governments are now playing catch-up.
