Hong Kong is not a country, but in my opinion it is very different from the mainland China that I think it is fine to put it as a separate category. Also, Antarctica is in that option despite not being a country, too.

We should respect all countries if we can, but we should respect human rights and freedom of speech first. There are some countries which restricts women rights, but that does not mean we have to ban women in this website - and same thing goes for Hong Kong.

So… all the accounts from china (20K) will be inactive.
But the good news is: The Chinese people are allowed to use VPNs

I'm pretty sure using a VPN is illegal in China.

PROPOSED SUGGESTION:
If the site detects the user's location to be in China, the site blocks content that is found to be sensitive under China's policy, with a message like “This project/studio is not available for viewing in your region in accordance with local policy”. Certain keywords are censored if site detects user to be in China.
Change Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Macau to China - Hong Kong, China - Taiwan, and China - Macau.

No, it's not. All the working VPN providers are blocked, but it's not illegal to use an VPN.

Why do you hate politics? It's like betraying your own country.

That's a pretty good clone of Scratch, I will say. Too bad my Chinese is as fractured as my Nintendo DS screen.

Of course I don't hate politics and I like my country but we shouldn't really do discuss that in the forums.

The blocks look weird in it.
