Subverting Chinese Brainwashing Using “Fuck XueXiQiangGuo”

Came across this FT article [1] exploring how some Chinese are getting around the mandatory "Study Xi Strong Nation app"[2]. The app requires users to collect a certain amount of points by scrolling through state-media articles about the president and answering quizzes.

Someone open sourced a way to subvert this brainwashing, and now there could be a real chance of Github being blocked in China if this solution gets too much traction. That or Github/Microsoft will take the repo down to appease Beijing.
