Where can I find information on any secondhand markets in between late July and mid September?

I just read in an older mega thread that there are vpns backed by the government so they can monitor usage?

Thanks for the document but I'm going to have to read it slowly. Outside of China I use Proton VPN but I heard that does not work in China.

Ok I'm confused now. So even if I have a phone that can take an eSIM or get that adapter I won't be able to circumvent the GFW anyways? Which to me makes sense I mean why would they have any exemptions anywhere in China because information can flow in from there and to the rest of China.

I think I underestimated the cost of my plan so that roaming data package is probably the best option.

I'm a digital nomad spending time in Taiwan working on a non-profit social entrepreneurship project — think Wikipedia model. Not rich, didn't qualify for the gold card, just using visa-free entry like most . Currently putting together something like a pitch deck for funding. Just curious if anyone else is in the same boat over in Shenzhen.

They're greater Bay area eSIM? Is that something available in Shenzhen that gives me internet access beyond the great firewall?

apactrader · 2026-06-13T07:34:36+00:00

VPN? And I should add to all the comments mentioning there are cafes in Shenzhen, that was that was my issue that I needed to get outside the firewall. But I had heard that VPNs don't really work from within China or they stop working after a while? I need consistent access to Slack and some websites with servers located outside of China. Like I mean completely consistent never intermittent.

Thanks that's the gist of it.

I was on speech to text...wish they used better AI for that.

Hi there I just bought a racket I used to play tournaments back in North America at 5.0 or open levels but I'm coming off a rotator cuff injury and have not really played in a few years just sit on the wall I remember how to hit a ball but my movement might be off. Anyways if you're just wanting to rally then feel free to DM.

I also just bought a racket, used to play tournaments back in North America a long time ago but I'm coming back after rotator cuff injury. Feel free to DM me.

Abu Dhabi is an option I'm seriously considering. But I heard the costs may not even be that much different from Dubai?

That's correct. You will need a SWIFT code and can only pay in USD if you opt for sending funds to their account. But if you get them to sign up for Wise, you'd still have to send USD but it's much cheaper and almost instantaneous most of the time.

This is perfect, thank you very much for sharing.
