    You don’t even have to say it. Go hand out “free Taiwan” pamphlets in tiananmen square and I promise you that you will be arrested extremely quickly and tried in secret. Your “trial” will be a judge telling your lawyer the charges, verdict and sentence to an otherwise empty courtroom. If you are very lucky you will be deported with time served.

      Do you have any other sources that can be verified? Otherwise, I’ll have to dismiss your claim as baseless. But like I said in other comments, I’m referring to the article and how it sensationalized the death penalty for website clicks, not about China’s intent behind the law or it’s application.
