Youku rips a lot of content directly from YouTube; 90% of the past popular stuff is there, and of course, piracy. As a laowai, I'm beginning to feel more isolated. If it wasn't for the pollution, it would be the biggest problem in living here.

Yeah, this and the pollution is what made me leave China two years ago. Looking back, I don't regret it.

Why are you beginning to feel isolated? Because of internet connection censorship? Or some combination of factors?
