If you’re from Guanzhou and work in Shanghai, you have to have a Shanghai phone.
Why?
Because it’s easier for state security to track you.
So if you’re going home, you turn off your phone.
Also because cellphone rates are expensive, people are given company phones. Company closes - no more phone.
Finally, China is economically collapsing. People are canceling all their services.
RE: Finally, China is economically collapsing. People are canceling all their services.
So, you’re saying the service cancellations are not as a result of deaths, but people refusing to use cellphones?
I find it hard to believe this, given that cell phones are getting to be very necessary for life in China, from buying to identification to surveillance to communication.
