Hello everyone, I am from China. In 2019, I was sentenced to three and a half years in prison for providing VPN services (to access foreign websites). The charge was "providing hacker tools". I have just been released from jail, and I want to tell you that many people in China are currently being sentenced for this. There is no freedom in China.
