Why would someone in China not select Claude? If the people at Claude not notice then it’s a pure win. If they do notice, what are they going to do, arrest you? The worst thing they can do is block your account, then you have to make a new one with a newly issued false credit card. Whoopie doo.

Because Anthropic doesn't provide services in China? See https://www.anthropic.com/supported-countries
Can confirm Claude doesn't even work in Hong Kong. That said I fired up my VPN and...then it did work.
Yeah, I love folks who worry about China having access to models and GPUs. I mean, friend, they have 1.3B people. They could put a crack AI team in every country in the world, tomorrow. But yes, instead, it's far cheaper to let each of those AI teams VPN to any country, all the time.
Not really a relevant issue or concern for a nation state backed hack…
