2033, yes.

2034 felt disjointed to a point I wasn't even sure it was written by the same person. Gave up reading eventually, about 1/3 in.

You might want to sign up with astrill. Greetings from China, we've been dealing with this shit for decades.

Didn't you post it this morning already? I swear I've seen the exact same content earlier.

Sure. Foreigners aren't really sanctioned though, that's more of a risk for the locals. But even then usually only if they want to get someone disappeared and don't have anything substantial against them.

Worse. They think it's useful.

Then they'll install the Linux version. People here are so indoctrinated, they like it.

I live in China and this software is cancerous not just in the encryption failure, it also nestles into a computer like a trojan. Creates 2 fallback installations and will reinstall itself after removal if you reboot in between, unless you get rid of all 3 installations at once, where they are deliberately trying to obfuscate the uninstall button (triple confirmation, swapping the confirm/cancel buttons and button background colors, etc.).

It's a nasty piece of crap that come preloaded on any phone (android, at least) and Windows-PC here.

Neither of which supports Chinese, so that's useless for any actual users of Sogou.

Nah they do a good job. They are having intrusive popups asking you to subscribe to their paid tier for scheduled searches and real time protection, but if you know what you want/need, the free version is alright.

It's still in development. Couple more days.

Muss doch nicht unbedingt auf jeder Instanz und in jeder Sprache diskutiert werden, solange es gefixt wird.
