Like 'cane' I assume that the "Great Firewall" is filtering them out.
Most of them, I guess. It's has some holes.

Today the user graphs look different again. The old approach shows a
drop, while the new approach looks like it would be even out. Maybe it
takes time to see where this develops to, unless someone has any insight.
