Chinese-language location-based escort ads aren’t new on the social media platform, but the frequency at which they are obscuring searches of Chinese cities in the last few days is unusual, as the data analyst noted:

中文基于位置的伴游广告在社交媒体平台上并不新鲜，但正如数据分析师指出的那样，过去几天它们掩盖中国城市搜索的频率不同寻常：
In protests unseen for decades, citizens in China are venting their anger at the country’s zero-COVID policy in subtle and unusual ways.

“I don’t know what to do. If we can still survive living like this then I suppose that’s what we’ll do,” said a Wuhan resident surnamed Chang, 38.
“When we see these news stories about COVID, we now feel a bit numb. We feel numb to it all. We feel more and more numb.”
Wuhan also suspended the sale of pork in parts of the city, according to images and posts on social media, after one COVID case was found that authorities said was linked to the local pork supply chain.

I don’t know if the girls and the youngsters left the scene safely, but I hope more people can give me a clue

Saturday’s evening news in China featured images of Hu attending the session but none of him being removed.
On China’s Twitter-like Weibo, a few social media users discussed the incident but by the evening, the comments section of almost all Weibo posts containing Hu’s name were no longer visible, according to a Reuters review.
没有报道国会戏剧，社交媒体被审查
周六晚报刊登了胡锦涛出席会议的照片，但没有一个人被撤职。
据路透社(Reuters)的评论，在中国类似Twitter的微博上，一些社交媒体用户对此事件进行了讨论，但到了晚上，几乎所有微博帖子中包含胡主席名字的评论部分都消失了。
Video footage published by AFP showed a steward repeatedly trying to lift Hu from his seat, drawing concerned looks from officials seated nearby.
Looking distressed, Hu appeared to resist leaving as the stewards escorted him out, turning back to his seat at one point.
On his way out, he exchanged words with Xi and patted Premier Li Keqiang, seated to the right of Xi, on the shoulder.
The incident sparked much speculation that Hu was being publicly admonished for a lack of support for Xi’s power grab.
The 79-year-old ex-leader supports the old collective leadership model with representatives from different factions which Xi has undone.
法新社发布的视频显示，一名乘务员多次试图将胡锦涛从座位上抬起来，引起附近官员的担忧。
胡锦涛看上去很伤心，似乎不愿离开，管家们护送他离开，回到他的座位上。
在离开时，他同习近平交谈，拍了拍坐在习近平右侧的李克强总理的肩膀。
这起事件引发了许多猜测，猜测胡锦涛因缺乏对习近平夺权的支持而受到公开训诫。
这位79岁的前领导人支持老式的集体领导模式，并支持习近平已经解除了的来自不同派系的代表。
A rare one-man demonstration in Beijing has inspired protest signs and graffiti elsewhere.
— Read onwww.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-63295749
Last Thursday, a man strung banners across a bridge in China’s capital that accused Mr Xi of being a dictator.
He was quickly detained but photos of his action spread around the world.
Since then similar signs and messages have appeared on several university campuses in the US, UK, Europe, Australia and elsewhere.
One handwritten sign at Colby College in the US state of Maine praised the Beijing man’s action and said: “We, people of China, want to spread this message that speaks our mind in places without censorship.”
Many replicate the messages displayed last week on the Sitong bridge in Beijing’s Haidian district.
上周四，一名男子在中国首都的一座桥上悬挂横幅，指责习近平是一个独裁者。
他很快就被拘留了，但他的行动照片传遍了全世界。
自那以后，类似的标志和信息在美国、英国、欧洲、澳大利亚和其他地方的一些大学校园里出现。
美国缅因州科尔比学院的一个手写标语赞扬了这位北京人的行动，并说:”我们中国人想在没有审查的地方传播这个表达我们思想的信息。”
许多人复制了上周在北京海淀区四通桥上展示的信息。

Overseas, many anti-Xi posters were put up by Chinese students like Jolie, who have long learned to keep their critical political views to themselves due to a culture of fear. Under Xi, the party has ramped up surveillance and control of the Chinese diaspora, intimidating and harassing those who dare to speak out and threatening their families back home.
在海外，像朱莉这样的中国学生张贴了许多反习近平的海报，由于恐惧文化，他们早就学会了把自己的批评政治观点保密。 在习近平的领导下，中国共产党加强了对中国侨民的监视和控制，恐吓和骚扰那些敢于直言不讳的人，并威胁他们的家人回国。
Chinese technology stocks tanked Monday after a political reshuffle in the world’s second-largest economy tightened President Xi Jinping’s grip on power with investors fearing this could be a negative for private firms.
Tech giants Alibaba and Tencent closed down more than 11% in Asia; search company Baidu was 12% lower while food delivery firm Meituan tanked more than 14%.
