Anything’s possible when you make shit up
Comment on .ml has got to be the only place on earth where I'd get downvoted for a comment like this
nexguy@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoHow do you know this information? You can’t look it up on Wikipedia in China… that’s blocked. Oh, read about it in the associated press? BBC?.. nope. All blocked. Ignorance is bliss it seems.

AP isn’t blocked here. But while in China, I can access anything that is blocked via VPN, like any chinese person. Its common enough a cop or security guy in Tianjin airport helped me install a hk-based esim via alipay that gets around the Great Firewall when I arrived the first time and couldn’t pull up my gmail.
That said it is still a nuisance.

Interesting. Every tool that I use says apnews.com is blocked. I wonder why they block anything if they allow everything.

Well that’s simply incorrect, here’s a screenshot of my desktop on wifi in Nanning, loading apnews.com. Image
Hahah no they block so much, youtube, google, probably 80% of western media, just not apnews, despite AP news historically just being a state department mouthpiece peddling whichever lies for whatever war.
