Cloud computing in China is a total shit show:<p>1. Go with a foreign cloud provider which has horrible latency thanks to the Great Firewall, and could get permanently blocked any time at the whims of the government.<p>2. Go with one of the big Chinese tech companies (Baidu, Alibaba and Tencent), where it&#x27;s almost guaranteed that they will steal your idea&#x2F;code&#x2F;data, clone your product, and rely on their massive size and network effect to destroy you. They didn&#x27;t get big through innovation like Western tech companies; they got big by stealing and government-backed monopoly.<p>3. Go with a smaller Chinese tech company that has reliability problems and could go belly up at any time.
