I have always wanted to ask such questions, as such projects come from a different kind of crowd, internet anarchists with a free world utopia in mind. Since these projects are also used by Chinese netizens, what do people think about this?

While Tor Project was DARPA made, many people benefit from it. Same goes for internet preservation projects, since internet is largely a creation of West.

I seek the perspective of native mainlanders and Chinese born here importantly, because I have not seen this being discussed anywhere.

Edit: I hate how armchair westerners have an issue with letting this topic be discussed calmly.

    Still doesn’t change my point that mainlanders are not likely to use lemmy and that they would get in trouble for asking this on weibo and the like

      Dunning Kruger, fellowman. You should know reality instead of whatever Reddit told you this week. I know the Reddit talking points come from a place of ignorance, which is why I asked actually informed people here. If you do not know, just stop derailing this thread I made.
