Well, similarly we could argue is a real difference between firecrackers and thousand pounds bombs.

Nope. On WhatsApp, no message I've ever sent has been censored. I haven't heard of anyone being censored on whatsapp. (the example being wechat which i believe is equivalent).

You aren't making the point you think you are. You are confirming that they were disappeared for a LONG time by the gov't.

Just because you haven't been censored doesn't mean everyone isn't censored.

Facebook owns WhatsApp. You really think there is no censorship on WhatsApp.

I am making an exact point. Oh my god, a tennis player and jack ma didn't make themselves available to western press for a bit. That's so crazy. Because we all know that these chinese people belong to western journalists. Right?

People complaining about censorship in a highly censored website. That's rich. Crazy how so many "people" care about china's freedom all of a sudden.

That's the best propaganda you can come up with? "make themselves available...for a bit"?

That's disingenuous.
