You are wrong. Myspace works fine in China.
- samatman 4y agoThis is, rather, evidence (as though we needed it) that Myspace isn't a social network.
- est 4y agoExplain Linkedin.com then? It also works 100% well in China.
- computerfriend 4y agoIt's shut down. https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-58911297 https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-58911297
- est 4y agoThe abomination Linkedin.cn (force redirects, ads, bloat features) was shutdown but Linkedin.com is always accessible.
- computerfriend 4y agoI don't believe this is correct.
- est 4y agoHow about run an actual multi site ping? Feel free to choose your own tool. https://ping.chinaz.com/www.linkedin.com https://ping.chinaz.com/www.linkedin.com https://ping.pe/www.linkedin.com https://ping.pe/www.linkedin.com
- computerfriend 4y agoAre you in China and able to load it? I can tell you that it doesn't load from at least one region. Ping tests are often misleading because datacenters have different connectivity than residential IPs.
- est 4y agoYou can test whereever you want, the point is "not a single western social network is permitted to operate in China" is factually false. Social networks are available if you aren't making "trouble" for the authorities. I am not trying to defend this or anything, the current state of affair is totally messed up, but still there are some global social networks exist in China. btw, even 4chan is accessible in China. Imagine that.
- computerfriend 4y agoWell, my only point is "[LinkedIn] works 100% well in China" is factually false.
- est 4y agoIf you want facts, linkedin.com still gets redirect to linkedin.cn(aka lingying.com) as of today here's the output of curl -sv https://linkedin.com https://linkedin.com > /dev/null * Trying 2620:1ec:21::14... * TCP_NODELAY set * Connected to linkedin.com (2620:1ec:21::14) port 443 (#0) < HTTP/1.1 302 Found < Date: Sat, 19 Nov 2022 09:51:33 GMT < Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 < Content-Language: en < X-Li-Fabric: prod-lor1 < Location: https://www.linkedin.cn/incareer/hp/ https://www.linkedin.cn/incareer/hp/ The bottom of the page says: ICP Filing Number: 14023203 ICP License Number: 150024 PSB Filing Number: 11030102010420 Human Resources Service License: 110401715069 Beijing LingYin Information Technology Co.

So technically it's still 100% working well with all bells and whistles in China. So what's your argument this time?
- est 4y agoAlso did you even read TFA you linked? > we are going to sunset the localised version of LinkedIn in China later this year
- computerfriend 4y agoI read it and followed it quite closely when it happened.
