Betteridge's law says "no", and the amount of bias shown in the first paragraph was enough to make me stop reading.


What's your explanation? It's all legitimate traffic even though the NYTimes site is supposedly banned in China? Is it still banned in China? I know it was in 2012. I'm not sure how easy it would be to get through to nytimes from China today.


It would be even more astounding if the new Chinese traffic was genuine.


Or real.
