Is the internet speed within wechat good enough？
Is it happy if you use wechat in order to spread passworded warez in a rar/zip file？

Erm... Do you mean to friends, or on this site?

Ok, well, I'm not sure about WeChat's policy, but if you're going to be sharing content here, you should be aware that you can't share anything that would be considered copyright-infringing in the US or any European countries

OK , i should just fine if i upload warez within china using wechat
Seems apps outside US or europe countries are not going to block wechat traffic like the firewall in china [It means US / other countries outside china can use wechat as a circumvention tool？]

don't forget one more thing：cloud file storage services in china provide paid options with very large space like 3TB/account like baidu or something else
You can simply abuse copyright laws in countries outside china just by signing up that kind of services hosted in china[you choose paid/free plans]

Doesn't matter where it's hosted, you still can't link to it here. Just a fair warning

uhh, yeah the speed is decent.

now, if you are a chinese citizen, I absolutely would NOT recommend using wechat as a way to communicate illegal stuff / copyrighted stuff (thats bad you shouldnt be doing it in the first place). In china wechat accounts are linked to ID cards or phone numbers (ID cards are linked to phone numbers anway) wechat communications are monitored so they can very easily find you anywhere, especially since people share their location.

Just a social media/chatting app on the app store,which developed by a chinese internet company

I know, I was making a joke. Weechat is a terminal based irc client.

 

[OsQ_Oscar]

I just use my ios/windows devices using these 2 apps within china developed by a same company
[For file storage]

Can't you just host your illegal stuff on MEGA or Google Drive, like most other people?

 

[OsQ_Oscar]

Of course i can

Put the VPN problem aside from china internet blocking

Google drive/MEGA storage space isn't large enough for files that more than 600GB/900GB

unlike the one's which hosted within china internet like tencent/baidu or anything else , they usually provide more than 2T space for each account after you sign up and paid the VIP member subscription option

Here's the main problem：google drive/MEGA is not large enough for a chinese netizen who keeps more than 900GB files all the time[Of course i can choose to order a google drive subscription for larger storage,but just still no enough space]
