While a heavily censored internet looks a lot like our own, it manages to seem a little off in some subtle and not-so-subtle ways.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Makes_the_Internet_in_China_Different\"><\/span>What Makes the Internet in China Different?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Unlike, for example, the United States or European countries, China has placed its internet behind a strict screen of censorship dubbed the Great Firewall. It\u2019s a highly sophisticated system that can block connections from Chinese IP addresses to ones that are considered harmful to the Chinese public. This includes adult entertainment and gambling sites as well as those featuring particularly violent content.<\/p>\n<p>Most striking of all, though, is that so few foreign <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a> sites are accessible to people in the People\u2019s Republic. The Chinese Communist Party tightly controls information flow and prefers that its people not read sources that haven\u2019t been vetted by the regime. That being said, it\u2019s not necessarily a rule set in stone: For example, How-To Geek isn\u2019t blocked on the Chinese internet (at least, not yet).<\/p>\n<p>Another bugbear of the Communist regime is non-Chinese social media sites with their supposedly lax moderation. As such, Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and a number of other similar sites are not accessible from China and are instead replaced with home-grown versions of those services.<\/p>\n<p>Besides blocking sites directly, the Great Firewall also doesn\u2019t allow most search engines to work on the Chinese internet: For example, DuckDuckGo is <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/china-blocks-duckduckgo-privacy-search-engine-203855\">banned<\/a>, as is the world\u2019s biggest search engine, Google, which includes products like Drive and Docs.<\/p>\n<p>Google suspended operations in the Middle Kingdom in 2010, citing an unwillingness to cooperate with the Chinese government\u2019s censorship. In 2018, however, it was reported that Google was working on a censored search engine for China dubbed <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/theintercept.com\/collections\/google-dragonfly-china\/\">Dragonfly<\/a>, although the project was quickly suspended once the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a> leaked. Microsoft seems to have even fewer scruples than Google, and its search engine, Bing, has been working for years under censorship rules, although it did get <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/714ac466-1f64-11e9-b126-46fc3ad87c65\">switched off for a day<\/a> in 2019, presumably as a warning from the regime to Western corporations.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_the_Chinese_Internet_Like\"><\/span>What Is the Chinese Internet Like?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The information above may have you thinking that the version of the internet that you get in China is some desolate wasteland full of <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/qz.com\/979891\/in-chinese-politics-it-pays-to-be-a-boring-speaker\/\">boring speeches<\/a> from Communist <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>aratchiks. However, while there\u2019s definitely some of that, overall, it\u2019s a lot like the internet in the rest of the world, albeit with some key differences. (Note that all the sites below can be accessed from anywhere in the world. The Great Firewall lets foreigners connect to Chinese services.)<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Web_Search\"><\/span>Web Search<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>We\u2019ll start with the gateway to the internet: search engines. Rather than Google, most Chinese people use Baidu, which manages to be the world\u2019s sixth-largest search engine (according to <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.searchenginejournal.com\/seo-101\/meet-search-engines\/\">Search Engine Journal)<\/a>\u00a0despite only really being used in one country (albeit one with over a billion people). There are other options, like Sogou or even Bing, but Baidu has <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/gs.statcounter.com\/search-engine-market-share\/all\/china\">almost 80%<\/a> of the market, so it\u2019s practically the default.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-721395\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Baidu-main.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Baidu main screen\" width=\"650\" height=\"382\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s pretty understandable, actually. Baidu has clearly taken a leaf or two out of Google\u2019s book when it comes to presentation and looks pretty similar to it. Also, while there\u2019s no way to compare the algorithms that both use, the search results look familiar, too (We used a popular breakfast food for the example below.).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-721396\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/baid-result-clean.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Baidu clean result\" width=\"650\" height=\"370\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Note that Baidu is only in Chinese, and as such, inputting English terms will usually return learning resources. Also, putting in \u201cgood hotel Beijing\u201d returned only hotels with the word \u201cgood\u201d in their name. If you wanted to bring up a ranked list like in Google, you\u2019d have to enter the Chinese search words in either pinyin (the way to write Chinese with Latin letters) or hanzi (characters).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-721397\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/baidu-hotel.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Baidu hotel result\" width=\"650\" height=\"307\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Of course, there are limits to what you can find: We also tried googling (baidu-ing?) \u201cTiananmen Square massacre\u201d (an event that took place in 1989 when the Chinese army <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-asia-china-42465516\">slaughtered peaceful protesters<\/a> in Beijing) and got nothing back except for some propaganda, both when attempting the search in English and in hanzi. Our IP address is most likely on a watchlist now, too.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-721398\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/baidu-tiananmen.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"baidu tiananmen result\" width=\"650\" height=\"371\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Streaming_Sites\"><\/span>Streaming Sites<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>This sanitized experience is much the same for video sites, too. YouTube is also banned in China, as it makes it very easy for people to post opinions, so it has been replaced by some home-grown (and also strictly moderated) variants. The biggest of these is <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/youku.com\">Youku<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-721399\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/youku-main.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Youku main page\" width=\"650\" height=\"495\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Youku is more or less like a cross between YouTube and the equally banned Netflix (or any other site like it, including Hulu, Disney+, etc.). While plenty of people upload their own videos to it, Youku has kind of been taken over for the last few years by studios and TV channels uploading <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">movies<\/a>, shows, and clips to it.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, it\u2019s probably the best place to watch Chinese-language entertainment from abroad as there are almost no blocks placed on it when accessing it from the outside, except for some copyright filters. Note, however, that there are no English subs available, although Chinese ones are usually hardcoded.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Social_Media\"><\/span>Social Media<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If, however, you\u2019d like to watch the kind of content that the Chinese people themselves upload, you\u2019re best off turning to social media. The best and biggest example is <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/weibo.com\/login.php\">Sina Weibo<\/a>, which is kind of like Twitter in that it allows for microblogging (That\u2019s the \u201cWeibo\u201d part of the name. \u201cSina\u201d is the company that owns it.), but it\u2019s unlike Twitter in that any political opinions not in line with those of the Chinese Communist Party are <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nateshivar.com\/1831\/happens-american-posts-tiananmen-square-weibo-chinas-twitter\/\">immediately removed<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Allegedly, a person who posts any diverging opinions can expect a visit from the police for a friendly chat. None of the contacts we reached out to for this article had this happen to them, but they were still afraid of the possibility either way.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-721400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/weibo-main.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"weibo front page\" width=\"650\" height=\"338\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Of course, much like with our other examples, everything is in Chinese. Still, exploring Weibo is a cool way to get an idea of what daily life in China is like as well as getting a peek at some <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a> weird goings-on, much like you can on YouTube.<\/p>\n<p>Another big social media site is <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wechat.com\/en\/\">WeChat<\/a>, which is more or less a cross between WhatsApp and Facebook. Besides being a way to keep in touch with your Chinese friends (Seriously, it\u2019s pretty much the only way to get ahold of people.), it\u2019s also a pretty handy tool for <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">travel<\/a>ers in China to use, as it gives you access to WeChat Pay, which you\u2019ll need to, well, pay for anything, as cash is <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.vice.com\/en\/article\/53n9ka\/china-cashless\">becoming less and less accepted<\/a> in China.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-721401 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/wechatpay.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"wechat pay\" width=\"650\" height=\"488\" data-crediturl=\"http:\/\/wdd.liangtong.com.au\/wechat-pay-review-customer-reach-usage\/\" data-credittext=\"We Do Design\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/wdd.liangtong.com.au\/wechat-pay-review-customer-reach-usage\/\">We Do Design<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tunneling_under_the_Great_Firewall\"><\/span>Tunneling under the Great Firewall<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>However, as cool as the Chinese internet can be when you\u2019re messing around with it for the first few times, there are two issues: It\u2019s pretty much Chinese-only, and it\u2019s heavily censored. Many of the movies on Youku, for example, may seem a little repetitive thanks to the same themes taking center stage in all films, and the news and social media often seem like rehashes of whatever was on yesterday. Even if your Chinese is good enough to handle it all, you\u2019re going to get bored.<\/p>\n<p>Also, using Baidu all the time for your searches can get annoying thanks to the massive amount of political and social topics that can\u2019t be discussed. Bing isn\u2019t that much better, and you\u2019ll start to miss Google search a lot quicker than you might think.<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, visitors to the country can use a VPN to bypass Chinese censorship, so you\u2019re not stuck using it. A VPN is a privacy tool that lets you circumvent Chinese censorship by rerouting your connection to a server outside of the People\u2019s Republic and thus access Netflix and Google like normal. Although officially, you can get in trouble for using a VPN when in China, in our experience, foreigners can get away with it without running into issues.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>How to Use the Internet from China<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Generally speaking, we think that\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.uxnzmft.com\/?offer=3monthsfree&amp;a_fid=howtogeek&amp;data1=content&amp;data2=721394\">ExpressVPN<\/a> and <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/windscribe.com\/\">Windscribe<\/a>\u00a0are best for this job, although asking friends already in China for suggestions is always a good idea.
