So, as far as I understand, he was fined 3 years salary for doing the job he was hired to do (I consider using Google/Github as part of the job).
Utterly horrifying. Especially when you realize that merely accessing Google is illegal in China…
As I understand it, he was fined exactly the amount he earned over 3 years of a job where he was using a VPN.
Oh, in that case it’s not horrifying at all. Who doesn’t keep 3 years of past salary in their checking account for the occasional rainy day?

Fuck the CCP
The ruling has spooked many in China’s IT and Web3 circles
Won’t someone think of the poor crypto bros! Lmao.
I don’t know what web3 is doing there, but I imagine this is terrifying if you’re doing IT for western companies in China.
We’ve got a team of 100 devs working on EdTech software in China. This affects more than crypto bros.
Well yes, but it’s weird that the article mentions Web3 in particular.
Why do we allow China to exist?
Who is “we” and why do they get to decide whether other countries exist?
Whoa cool down there Adolph. Nobody should be whether another group/culture/society/country should exist.
You can choose not to do business or interact with them, but that’s about it.
What would your suggestion be?
The CCP leadership lined up against a wall so we could finally stop their genocides and their people could know freedom?
Sounds like a happy outcome to me, them too.
There is presently about 1.4 billion people in china. If they decide to rise up against their government, they wont need our help.
