There are definitely a lot of problems in China, as in any country. I agree that it's horrible that the government seems to want to have total control over anything. One thing I have been impressed by in China is how developed everything is though. I have been in other countries with somewhat totalitarian governments and the people seem to be suffering much more than in China. I visited a couple dozen cities and China and the people are making much more money on average than in many other countries. The people that I met didn't seem too bothered by their government's shenanigans. When it comes to internet censorship, almost all the Chinese people I met know how to get around any of the blocks. I guess everything is good until you get on the government's bad side.
