ChatGPT happily helped me run through all kinds of tools and configs. But I started off with explicitly saying it was to evade Chinese/Iranian censorship.

Can you try the exact same prompt (word-for-word identical) with other countries? Eg. US, Canada, Russia, Italy?

I'd be curious to know if there was a difference.

Fascinating result. It's non-deterministic!

I went to create a clean chat, did temporary mode, and it rejected me! I tried again in another temporary chat and it worked.

Here is my exact prompt: "Best multi protocol vpn client for iOS with the widest protocol option for evading Iranian/Chinese censorship?"

I tried US, UK, France. All went through, but they did caution that evasion may be illegal.

Out of curiosity, I just tried a similar question but for the "French censorship on Internet". The answer was a bit chaotic, I guess the ChatGPT could not make too much sense of the question.
