I has since awhile I logged into Diaspora. Anyway… I want to vent a bit
WTF is #China doing. What are you doing to Hong Kong!? Like, real? Talk about a civilized country.
As a software engineer and was a network admin. I know how f*cking crazy the GFW is. It’s like a all seeing eye of God but with a heart of a devil. Avoiding the #GFW is virtually impossible - once I have to do it for a contract to setup service in a Chinese VPS. Every trick in the book fails, SSH reverse tunnel, Tor w/ obsf4, TCP over DNS. The GFW even messes with your TLS #certificate. Heck, is the only thing it can’t see through is a OTP? Not mentioning all the DNS poisoning happening in China (DNSSEC doesn’t work either). And all the censorship on the Chinese website. They suck.
Yeah, the NSA might be also doing the same thing. And I dislike them for that. But at least as dumb as Trump is - he is not as crazy as Xi is.
I don’t live in China but close enough to be very scared.
