    Every government wants their citizens to be on the internet, what a better way to keep track of me and you.

    You buy stuffs online via AliBaba or any of the Chinese eCommerce, they aka the CPC already have your personal info and credit cards on you.

    Chinese Hackers hacking into China’s AliBaba in China….that will never happen. It mean death penalty.
