    Western states already have established firm control and surveillance as well as anybody who’s been paying any attention knew ever since Snowden revelations. Meanwhile, invoking whataboutism is a logical fallacy used to create a double standard for yourself and others. Claiming that China is authoritarian while the west is democratic while both do exact same things is just hypocrisy.

    The reality is that there aren’t any real risk for Japanese creators using weibo, it’s just concern trolling.

        No, I’m not doing any double standard. What western governments do is demonstrably what westerners claim makes China authoritarian.
