Jack Ma has been missing for 2 months, so it's very likely the CCP is involved. You would think with his extreme wealth, he'd have avoided capture. Maybe he's on an island somewhere, or in a re-education camp.

Jack Ma, the multibillionaire founder of tech companies Alibaba and Ant Group, went missing after criticizing China’s financial system by calling for changes and reforms. Since he’s made these comments, Ma has not been seen in public for about two months.

Ma is one of the wealthiest people in China. His net worth, according to Forbes, is $58.4 billion. The 56-year-old grew up under humble circumstances in Communist China. Ma famously told people how he twice failed his university-entrance exams and was rejected from every job he applied to after college, including the fast-food chain, KFC.

Ma is the quintessential rags-to-riches story. After many early setbacks, he, along with a scrappy team of 18 people and $60,000, cofounded Alibaba in the city of Hangzhou in 1999. About 20 years later, Alibaba became one of the world's largest retail and e-commerce companies—boasting over 100,000 employees.

Ma was seen as a breath of fresh air in the traditionally conservative Chinese business culture. He cultivated the persona as an irreverent ambassador for the company. Ma embraced over-the-top stunts, including a Michael Jackson-inspired dance at an Alibaba anniversary party and acted in his own kung fu film, Gong Shou Dao.

He “retired” from Alibaba in September 2019. There was speculation at the time that Ma's retirement was due to tension with the Chinese Communist Party. It was believed that the leaders of the Party were leery of his outsized power and influence.

Maybe he's on an island somewhere, or in a re-education camp.

Or buried six feet under.

I was being optimistic, but this is probably true.

I'm Chinese,

and this hasn't even been in our news. I have not heard of this until now. Seems like their propaganda really is effective.

Don't tell anyone, or you might disappear too...

Most of us, ones who delve in overseas communities, take privacy very seriously. It's almost like it's required by law :thinking: .

I know they really improved their censorship, but this was certainly surprising to me. I didn't know they were that good at censoring.

That is actually a little crazy. It's not often we get to hear about first had experience with it. I can't imagine what it would be like to find out big news like that.

VPNs are basically compulsory, I'd imagine. It's very hard to access Chinese resources from outside the country, as most services require a Chinese phone number. Just getting into a Baidu Pan account is a pretty big nuisance. Are people typically arrested for using VPNs or visiting sites like ours?
