Is surveillance in China really that bad or is it just propaganda? (lemmygrad.ml)

China is always used as the primary example of a surveillance state, people constantly talk about how dystopian it is and how everything you do in public or online is tracked. I have always been skeptical about these claims and know how hypocritical they are because of the amount of surveillance that happens in the west but I want to know if China is really that bad in regards to privacy.

I dunno, I think having the US as an enemy would certainly make me hypervigilant.
