Within China, reliable information about the state’s policy in Xinjiang is particularly hard to come by, even as that policy has harmed and distorted the lives of millions of people. Almost as soon as The New Yorker published “Surviving the Crackdown in Xinjiang,” people online began to translate it into Mandarin, either in whole or in part. One group on Twitter launched a crowdsourcing effort and called for volunteers to select specific paragraphs to work on, writing, “We’re not asking for a lot—just as long as the sentences make sense.” Days after the story was published, full amateur translations began to appear—one of them, on a forum hosted by an institution in Beijing. As the translations were proliferating, The New Yorker was already taking steps to commission an official Chinese version, to ensure that an accurate rendition is available for anyone who wishes to read it in Mandarin.
在中国,关于国家对新疆政策的可靠消息来源非常稀有,即使这些政策已经伤害、扭曲了数百万人的日常生活。几乎就在《纽约客》发布《走出新疆镇压》的同时,网上就有人开始将其全篇或段落翻译为中文。推特上的一个组织发起了一个众包活动,请求志愿者翻译特定段落,他们说,“要求不高,句子能看懂就行了”。原文章刊出数天后,业余的全文翻译开始出现——其中一款发在北京一家机构主办的网络论坛上。与此同时,《纽约客》也已安排官方中文翻译,以确保所有普通话读者都能得到最准确的印象。
@solids 立功了。2047是中国境内目前唯一能够与中国政府在国际舆论场上对抗的非西方媒体。

Thanks for the mention.
Just to be clear, we're not based in Beijing, nor are most of our users. We're primarily a group of young, ethnically Chinese, highly educated, Chinese-and-English-speaking people from around the world. We use the forum primarily for political discussions.
Our site is blocked by the great firewall of China (not accessible in mainland China without a VPN).
My predecessor (alleged owner of https://2049bbs.xyz/), however, has been detained by authorities in Beijing since April 2020, allegedly for backing up deleted WeChat channel articles on GitHub. His name is Cai Wei (蔡伟). There have been numerous news articles from various outlets about him and his work.
5 to 15 years in prison, that's the price he (and I if I was caught in Beijing) will have to pay to run sites like ours in mainland China.
