This claim was recently made by one of the Chinese Olympians, but it is not true. VPNs were made illegal in 2017, and since 2021 China has been clamping down hard on their own citizens using VPNs to bypass the great firewall, while looking the other way for foreign nationals. The CCP does not send everyone to jail who uses a VPN, but they have the authority to do so if they see fit.
