Strypey#ShowerThoughts using a VPN in China is morally equivalent to using a #BitTorrent client back home, to watch TV shows under ARR copyright. In both cases I'm technically breaking the law of the land, but as an act of civil disobedience against laws I ses as unjust and oppressive. Why should I accept being denied access to the full public internet, or to audio-visual entertainment that used to be broadcast free-to-air, and costs nobody anything if I download a copy instead?
