I wonder if you could install a virtual machine to bypass the spyware while leaving it intact and functioning so the authorities can't catch you.

If I lived in China I’d just decline to upgrade my hardware. I still got a 386 upstairs doing e-mail and basic stuff with 1994-vintage software. Works fine.

or better yet, write a program(virus), that would disable the spyware, and allow the Chinese user to bypass these restrictions. China's a huge market, think of the money to made. The trick would be to get the program on the Chinese market, under the noses of their Commie overlords.

If the spyware is software, you could reformat and reinstall. But this sounds like it will be embedded in firmware. So VM wouldn’t matter.

Or re-format and load your own OS.
