Why should Americans care what the Chinese government thinks of them and their video-watching choices? What are they going to do about it, all the way over on the other side of the planet? If you worry that you might have watched or said something which "hurt the feelings of the Chinese people", you can just stay home and refrain from going there, like most of us were always going to do anyway.

I am far more concerned about being monitored and influenced by a domestic government, because they have power where I live, and they can wreck my life anytime they want to.
