There's absolutely nothing there that six eyes isn't doing, including
direct censorship. The only difference is the Chinese leadership is
honest about it, which gives their citizens the option of fucking them
back. I give the Chinese government credit for that. Meanwhile the
average Westerner would categorically deny their governments does any of
that and their government denies they do it.
About that "Fucking them back" thing.

Compare what happens in China when a rogue cop kills a community member
to what the typical American community does, then apply that to what
COULD happen to their government if it didn't have the support of it's
billion citizens regarding almost anything... Including internet
surveillance. Meanwhile Americans don't support that sort of
surveillance of themselves... But prefer to remain ignorant of it.
