In U.S. we have people that don't do anything their whole lives, instead run around and talk about how government must let them do more. In China they just DO!

When Guo Liang's percentage on the number of Chinese users visiting non-Chinese url's would be correct that would be a group of about five million people (out of 115 million). My estimation is that the number of people using proxies would be in the millions (one or two), rather than the hundreds of thousand. Very hard to come up with a good estimation.

What I liked about the article was that even with proxies, the dynamic he describes isn't changed.

But somebody should have told him about proxies and how they work. Nice piece indeed for somebody who had no clue when he came to China.
