That is sad. Then there is one option to keep persisting on free software and users' freedom in computing by promoting: The JavaScript Trap - GNU Project - Free Software Foundation https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/javascript-trap.html and helping people understand, as only when there is number of people with awareness changes will take place. I am sure in China there are human rights defined in laws, and one shall find which apply to free software and then put focus on such laws and prevention of human rights abuses by usage of proprietary software. For example in some countries one may argue WHY did country allow only specific provider to be accepted and provide free software? One could also find bugs, backdoors or other issues in such software and block it for that reason by complaining to authorities, and in same time provide replacement. One could make free software and provide replacement to authorities and explain why. -- Jean Take action in Free Software Foundation campaigns: https://www.fsf.org/campaigns In support of Richard M.
