I have always wanted to ask such questions, as such projects come from a different kind of crowd, internet anarchists with a free world utopia in mind. Since these projects are also used by Chinese netizens, what do people think about this?
While Tor Project was DARPA made, many people benefit from it. Same goes for internet preservation projects, since internet is largely a creation of West.
I seek the perspective of native mainlanders and Chinese born here importantly, because I have not seen this being discussed anywhere.
Edit: I hate how armchair westerners have an issue with letting this topic be discussed calmly.
VPNs are legal in China, just that they are government approved. You should talk after knowing on ground reality, not hearsay from American internet echo chambers.
It really doesn’t change my point that they don’t want you to freely access information why else do you think they would only allow use of official approved ones
Because you do not understand what it is like to be a country/individual being attacked by a drove of Western countries/majority of the internet chatroom.
people attack the US on chatrooms too who cares about what anons are saying on the internet what matters that they’re doing the best for their people and they’re working for the benefit of their people there is never a good reason for censorship
