As someone who’s lived in China for some time as a mid-level nobody working in tech, it’s honestly no big deal. Just don’t do anything stupid, like committing a crime or posting about sensitive stuff on wechat, and there’s very little to worry about.
I definitely wouldn’t have the courage to be a journalist here, though. And even for us nobodies, China is becoming less welcoming to foreigners with every year that passes.
- diego_moita 5y agoLiving in China or not, you are giving opinion about you don't understand. You probably didn't read the story of the 2 Michaels. They didn't "do anything stupid". They are 2 Canadians that were arrested because Canada had to obey a treaty with the U.S. that mandates the country to arrest anyone that the American justice has judged as guilty. That treaty forced Canada to arrest the daughter of Huawei. In retaliation China arrested the 2 Michaels. The former U.S. "grab-them-by-da-pussy" in chief found it funny to keep her locked so didn't care about it. The whole thing got solved when Biden let her go and China released the 2 Michaels. The bottom line is: China doesn't give a *** to rule of the law. I hope you don't discover that by yourself.
