No, that's very different. That's a mega corporation doing horrible things, and they can and will get sued and charged over it.

My example was the actual Chinese government hiding the issue. And this happens all the time in China. There are entire villages where more than half the population has cancer due to contaminated ground water. And the other residents who don't have cancer can't do anything because they don't have any money to deal with it.

This is just the tip of the iceberg with China. Remember, all their news agencies are state controlled and they censor everything coming out of there. There's no "free press" to report on these kinds of issues. The rest of the world only hears about it when it becomes too big to control.

Another example is kidnapping of children. It's a big issue in China and we're only just starting to hear about it because it's become such a problem. Same thing with the "revenge against society" attacks.

My point is that China is already the dystopia you worry about.
