Again, the practice has been cracked down on, and was largely in bleeding edge tech companies. It isn't the backbone of the Chinese economy, nor is it the norm.

    I agree that it's ridiculous to use social media comments as evidence. Chinese workers work on average 46 hours a week. This is a fact, and the median is lower as the sectors 996 was found in before the crackdown raised the average, largely in Beijing and Shanghai, and largely in the tech sector.
