there could be people using Tor that wants to spread news into outer world... Or people who was in china but not anymore

But probably not in lemmy.

Tor is blocked by the GFW, I am not sure if that means GFW have the ability to track attempted TOR traffic, but that could be the case.

This is a quite interesting read on what kind of tech GFW might be employing: https://www.technologyreview.com/2012/04/04/186902/how-china-blocks-the-tor-anonymity-network/

nice to know that they still cannot block obfs4 relays! on my experience nearly all hiddeb bridges Tor uses are obfs4
