While I trust that the commenter above is genuine, OP seems to be highly concerned about their opsec. So I just want to post a friendly reminder for the OP to be careful about reaching out to people that comment on this post. For example, don’t reach out using an email that can be linked to your identity.

Yes I thought about that. There are a couple of different threat models. Anyone living in HK right now is in great danger and should be extremely cautious. For them, even posting here may be too risky.

Anyone outside of China may still be at risk, especially if they have family / friends there.

But to add a bit of opsec, the email above is on Protonmail, and if OP wants to reach out they can create a burner account there and email me - that would stay within the service. (cue debate about TLA access to Protonmail, but at least it's probably not the CCP)
