Well, ironically privacy is a protected right (PIPL - 2021) but historical heavy censorship is also a no brainer. And censorship will get worse, even globally. That’s not my point. The capability of bitchat as infrastructure covers a wider surface of use cases and innovation, including many encrypted tools that could be used within own products, internal groups that need privacy, etc or the products it exports. Right now it's seen as an activism tool that limits its tech growth opportunity. Also, understanding why Beijing is extremely sensitive towards how the world has treated it wouldn't hurt.
