Why does the "fix" have to be the cdn versus China itself? Why is that being ignored as the real issue?

Pragmatism? If you want your web site to be viewable in China you can

a) change a URL

b) campaign for open internet access in China

which one is likely to be more effective?

Shouldn't we design systems to not be susceptible to this kind of problem rather than just asking everyone to be nice?

A similar issue would be for one of the CDNs to go down, this isn't just a problem with censorship.

And a web developer is going to change China how?
