AFAIK, VPNs are illegal in China. Maybe has something to do with that.

Why would that have anything to do with reddit? They're hosted in the US and banned in China.

Maybe they're looking to undo that second part to tap that sweet sweet market.

AFAIK, reddit is blocked in China, so why would they care?

[–] Lasagna@lemmy.ml 13 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

AFAIK, Reddit has a bunch of Chinese investors. Maybe they care?
