I'd love to believe that American use of Rednote could overwhelm Chinese censors. But I doubt there are the numbers. Unless there aren't enough English speaking censors.

But hey. Good opportunity for Americans to up their censorship avoidance skills. Might come in handy.

❝ Lindsay Gorman, managing director and senior fellow of GMF's Technology Program, previously told Newsweek:

"TikTok itself is banned in China like most social media platforms that allow users to speak freely on topics China doesn't like. That means that an influx in Western users—a sizable fraction of whom hold progressive views—will have to contend directly with censorship on RedNote that's made in China for China. The flip side of this if RedNote's U.S. user base does expand rapidly is that the censors may have a hard time keeping up and keeping the political content off the platform." ❞

@nazgul I heard they started separating users by IP which in turn cut off people living outside of China from their primary connection to Chinese culture.

@nazgul I expect it too will be banned.

@nazgul It might overwhelm the censors temporarily. But the company can adapt.
