In late November, Ren Jianyu, once a budding civil servant in China’s southwest, received his results for China’s National Judicial Examination: a sterling score well above what he needed to pass China’s bar.

Ren’s offense was to have reposted on his microblog comments critical of China’s government and its leaders.
