I mean, I dislike China's censorship and dictatorship as much as the next guy, but I feel like working for a company that isn't China is the bigger deal here.
Yup. That alone will break many tax and employment laws in most countries, leading to serious lawsuits pretty much anywhere in the world. China's government type just sped up the whole process a bit, but the result would be pretty much the same elsewhere.
