Yeah I'd also like to understand why they are doing this.
Everyone expects these sites to scrape as much personal information as possible (China did not invent that, they are following), but beyond that any additional imagined state-ran initiative would be server side, right? What is worth hiding in the front end beyond preventing people re-using their code? (which would be overkill to use a VM for, as light obfuscation would be enough)
