I live in China and this software is cancerous not just in the encryption failure, it also nestles into a computer like a trojan. Creates 2 fallback installations and will reinstall itself after removal if you reboot in between, unless you get rid of all 3 installations at once, where they are deliberately trying to obfuscate the uninstall button (triple confirmation, swapping the confirm/cancel buttons and button background colors, etc.).
It's a nasty piece of crap that come preloaded on any phone (android, at least) and Windows-PC here.
It's time to switch to Linux!
I mean the CCP is aiming to have people use Kylin? If the government and the entire populace starts using Linux instead we'll just see the same BS on Linux instead. It's not an OS/platform issue, but an issue of bad actors.
On the plus side maybe then it’ll finally be the year of the Linux desktop.

Don't worry, there is also a Linux version.
Oof
Then they'll install the Linux version. People here are so indoctrinated, they like it.
