>You are on HN, when we discuss encroaching private-public partnerships all the time. Not that long ago, WH got in trouble for encouraging suppression of some news items over others[1]. We are already at a point, where the difference between corps and government is more of a legal abstraction than a reality ( legal abstraction circumvented by that partnership, but that is a different rant ).

Can such discussion take place in China?

Is that a relevant argument here? I am being serious.

[Levitz]

Sure it is. Being able to question the state of things is a large difference.

[A4ET8a8uTh0]

Is it? If the questioning does not result in any meaningful difference, did we actually question anything?
