Me and My Censor | Made in China Journal
When Liu Lipeng first contacted me in July 2020, I was still in China. I initially wanted to write this as a fictional short story, but I didn’t have the courage to do it at the time because it would ...

Bluesky’s new icon is so pretty, so does the new sky.

墙内的言论审查虽然极为严格,但仍有极大的灰色空间官方并不去管,而是靠自我审查和互相举报实现的。比如你曝光学校里的一起性骚扰案件,并不算有害时政甚至偶尔会得到官媒背书,但在学校看来却是罪大恶极必须严惩你。或者曝光官员腐败,不同政府部门对你的看法可能截然相反但你却只有一条命。
除了“煽动颠覆国家政权”确实不允许以外,社会上还存在无数的其他权力结构,在某些情况下,一般人还是有希望借助网络“煽动颠覆”掉学校物业居委会的。取缔前台匿名就是为了将这些可能也取消掉。

说下中国的网络实名制。首先注册和发言都需要手机号验证(有的是一步完成有的是分开)(实名制未完善的号段即使+86的也不让注册);然后是IP地址实名,而且每条发言都要记录IP并保存半年以上(大部分网站干脆永久保留),堵漏措施比如网吧和图书馆要求登记身份证,机场咖啡厅要求记录手机号。
这些会给你留下长长的一串实名记录,再加上一些不上台面的工具比如微信把你聊天记录加密存你手机里等等,理论上是无处可逃的。而知乎的前台匿名功能是为了防止你被普通网民认出来是谁,尤其在你长篇大论回答专业问题以后,很容易被圈子里的人识别。

Bluesky has a great advantage over Threads for users who live in China.

In China, you don’t need to turn VPN on everytime you open Bluesky, but Threads needs.

Bluesky or Threads? Both! I chose to post English here, and 繁體中文 on Threads.

Found some Chinese users here, however, I prefer to post something in English. Bluesky will be my space for practicing English writing. I hope so.

I wanna know is there any Chinese users sharing their daily stories? Or any social spaces for books📚 lover?

Great work! A story on a ordinary man who loved literature till his death, a story about a literature professor who had independent thoughts on his life.
I have read this book recently.
It's splendid. I hope you will read that book soon.
It's all about a man who loved literature till his death.
