Chinese users often have no choice, as Google Play is often not present in the phone. Manually installing it is quite complicated.

And you need to show an ID to go to an internet cafe, so no difference here...
Read more about the way World War II set in motion. Hitler had the people's support, an armed citizenry would have changed nothing.
That's not true, except maybe for some government officials and other activities "involving the national security" (which can be pretty vast and arbitrary in China). Regular citizens do not need this exit visa and can leave the country whenever they want (it is the entry visa to any other country which can be hard to get).
No, when you are on www.duckduckgo.com, you show the list of search engines by clicking the small arrow, you see "Add DuckDuckGo" at the bottom, you click it and you are done. Admittedly, that's two clicks.
I think you should think about this again, a little bit harder this time
I live in Shanghai. Where should I go to know about this kind of event (if possible before they happen, not like this one) ? What are the good local websites or resources ? English and Chinese both OK.
Let me guess, WaterGems and co ?
What a coincidence ! The plant we are talking about is in China.
That's right, because at the end, they still have the house.
You are right and I sure hope they are running like GP says they are. If you have backup pumps, of course you do not run them like the others. You shouldn't forget about them for twenty years hoping they will just wake up when needed, but running them full-time would be nuts.
So because it is worse elsewhere we shouldn't say anything ? An ad on a bus may be bigger and more distracting than an ad on a Kindle, but I have much less power over the bus company than over the device I bought myself.
And to answer your question: I can't drive or walk without seeing ads. And it does bother me.
That's the reason half the population lives in towns, because most of them were forcibly moved to be become a ready source of labor.
You got it backward. People want to go to cities for any kind of job because life in the countryside sucks so much. The Chinese government is very careful about this and has basically set up an internal passport to control movement from countryside to city and province to province. People still move but they have less rights than real urban residents.
The democratic alternative is India, where people also go to the cities and also don't have much rights
I found this kind of mistake is mostly made by native speaker. People who learn English later make a lot of mistakes but rarely like accept/except, would of, their/they're.
Actually, to speak French is not a requirement to enter the French Foreign Legion. A lot of the soldiers learn French during their training.
Suggest you just sit there and wait till life gets easier.
