Jack Ma is as scummy as the American tech elite, The whole 996 work schedule was from his companies. It's honestly good for society that people like him get reined in.

And it's not like they sent him to some north korean death camp. He's still one of the richest people in China, he just failed to deregulate the finance industry.
