It's interesting to see the number of comments that consist of whataboutism ("But, but, but ChatGPT!") and minimization of the problem ("It's not really censorship." or "You can get that information elsewhere.").
I like to avoid conspiracy theories, but it wouldn't surprise me if the CCP were trying to make DeepSeek more socially acceptable.
- ngcazz 2y agoI suspect this is mainly a regulatory issue
- zb3 2y agoI'm not from CCP, but since I don't live in China, Chinese "alignment" is not really a concern for me. Is chinese-specific censorship a concern for you?
- CaptainFever 2y agoYeah same. Even in this very thread there were thankfully flagged commenters that were pro-China sockpuppets. In the Wikipedia article for whataboutism, one can see that such tactics were a large mainstay of Soviet Union propaganda.
