This is over a developer accessing GitHub? WHAT THE FUCK?
The land of the free
I don’t think China has ever even tried to pretend it’s the land of the free.
Some china fans seem to think it is
Eh the authoritarian capitalists who love the CCP generally seem to embrace the fact that China is authoritarian - they see it as a good thing!
O.o Did you just confuse America with China?
It’s a lemmy user base joke
Third party scraped reports citing a crypto shill site’s reporting on a blurry and redacted document from China’s equivalent of Facebook is how I get all my accurate and true news about things that really happened.

It’s good to show genuine scepticism to what you read, but I can’t help but think yours is not particularly honest.
It is extremely clear via auditing the trail of this report that the ‘crypto shill site’ is negligible to the story. You would have had to go back one step in the chain, stick your fingers in your ears, then ignore everything else from that point onwards to think Coin Telegraph was actually relevant to the reporting of this story.
True or not, here you can find a clear summary, along with screenshots stamped with the seal of the Chengde PD. These screenshots, contrary to your claim, are not at all blurry, and have minimal redaction (to protect the person’s privacy).
Given fairly credible and detailed screenshots of a police report, numerous reporting across a number of different websites in both Chinese and English, even a reported GitHub profile of the person in question, I think there’s sufficient evidence to believe this is likely a true story.
But you do you.
First of all, if there is a better source then OP should post the better source to begin with. Everyone should be skeptical when presented with a second hand summary of something going through two weak sources.
As for the original source, it’s an NED front based in the US so as far as I’m concerned it can be dismissed with no further consideration.
Ah, you’re one of those. Nuf sed.
I’m sorry we can’t all be credulous stooges of American imperialism living on stolen land like you.
Hmm… To debate with a conspiracy theorist or not… Such a difficult choice.
You know what, let me try something different…
You win this debate! I concede! Although I am not an American and don’t live in America, I am a stooge of the American imperialists! And yes, like the other 8.1 billion people on the planet (sans you, of course), I live on stolen land! Have mercy!
