Using alipay is super bad considering you would be supporting a country
that censors the internet and imprisons people for viewing the "wrong"
things.
Not using Alipay is worse; it's been the only way of getting your money
back if a dealer on one of 10Cent's market places is not keeping his
side. So using the accumulated cash there for something I want to use it
for is a bad idea? Well, then... And yes, I will continue buying
interesting stuff directly from China instead of getting it via USA and
Amazon.
Crypto payments and cash in mail to trusted qubes people (with secret
shoppers to help ensure honesty) are the least terrible option.
From my point of view on ecology: not. Besides throwing all your money
towards China, too or where do you think is most crypto mining being
done because there currently is no place you're paying less for the
ecological damage right now. So while China's censorship is not
threatening me right now, adding unnecessary carbon dioxide to my
environment is.
