That's 5 platforms over 20 years...with 4 years each. We're due for a new sheriff, especially if Tencent goes deeper into monitoring us.
I have no doubt foreigners every deed and doing are monitored just as much if not more than Chinese citizens. I was just stating that we can’t access the we chat wallet scoring system which would apparently give us access to credit from Tencent.
Douyin may take over the messaging space from We Chat but Tencent will be fine since there will always be dudes playing video games for 18 hours a day.
