I'm going there in February for a few months, that's a start. Looking forward to it.

Report back. Am genuinely curious!

I'll be there, and I travel often across main cities for work, so let me know then if you want to hang out.

[-] Flyberius@hexbear.net 33 points 2 years ago

Sure, I will be all over the place. Once I know my plans a bit solidly I will let you know.

I’m in Shanghai a few times a year on business and really have to double check that I have multiple VPN options available before leaving. Had a coworker have his phone checked at customs but we always bring dedicated “China-only” cell phones and laptops. They seem to be getting more on top of crushing outside communications but I always get at least one connection working when there. Last time it was an ssh tunnel to an AWS instance that I used to route traffic. Before that it was ExpressVPN which gave me trouble on the last visit. China is playing whack a mile with the VPNs.

Oh my god, just think, you won’t be able to check reddit or read the new york times without your precious VPN! The horror!

Wow it's almost like the great firewall is trivial to circumvent and countless millions of people do it every day.
