Do you comply with PRC law, or even know what it asks of you? If not, why?

I don’t know and don’t care because I don’t have to. I live in a sovereign nation and I’m not obligated to follow their rules, any more than their citizens are obligated to follow mine. That’s how countries work.

If my country signs a treaty with them, then I have to obey that specific law. Absent that, I don’t.

Hell no I don’t abide by laws of the PRC.

If they had all the things I’d ever said in my life time they’d probably execute me. I speak my mind all the time. That’s what terrifies me though, because in 20 years time they could be running the show. So why would I want to make it so easy for them to know everything I have ever said, why would I want that data stored about me.
