Have you ever been to China? There's a plenty of people who work there and have to use various proxies to do so, is the Chinese government cracking down on them? Nah, they'll just mess with those connections a little to keep up appearances.

But hey, if you decide to use a proxy that screams "I'M A POLITICAL DISSIDENT" with every packet you send they might just get interested.

It's really not as naive as you think.
