Nope, but I can see why you’d think that. Honestly, I wanted to choose my words carefully because of the often politically charged tone that can often be interpreted/intended when uttering the word “China.”

I studied Chinese language, art, history, politics, and culture in university and lived in Shanghai after graduating. While I lived there, I helped some friends setup some domains for hosted GMail/e-commerce and learned some interesting things about business there.

I also spend some of my spare time finding vulnerabilities in hardware devices and building my own small electronics/maker projects. This has given me ample opportunities to work with (i.e. get help from or provide feedback to) many different companies based in China.

The GP is a quite informed and informative comment. Honestly, randomly saying "AI-generated" under others' comments is a much more bot-like behavior.
