"textContent": "I’m planning a trip to mainland China very soon, so I wanted to ask what is everyone’s perspective in the current situation and what would be adequate and proportionate measures to reduce potential exposure.\n\nWould they ask for my disk encryption password on my laptop to check it? I could probably get a burner phone for the trip, but not a laptop.\n\nI plan to pay for a VPS somewhere to access my homelab from abroad, and maybe access Mullvad through that tunnel, as I suspect that it’s blocked in China. Good plan? If so, what VPS provider would you guys recommend right now, in terms of availability and pricing?\n\nRegarding Tor, should I refrain from using it?",
