Look at the spread of the corona virus in South Korea and Italy now. Then look at Hong Kong and Taiwan, whose people don't trust China for even a bit.
The first thing China did was to detain whistle blowers. One of them died from this virus. What they did was to conceal the outbreak, not tackling it.

A newer video basically reiterating the points:
The previous version was a free service without the need to sign up - just create a bookmark collection page with an optional password, then anyone with the password can use it right away. The link to the collection could be totally anonymous because the app tracked nothing at all. But I got 0 users, apart from myself. So I rewrote it from scratch to make the collections more organizable. The sharing is still anonymous because there's no way for another user to know who created them. There has to be a way, however to track your own bookmarks, so I guess it's not truly "anonymous" as in "impossible to track" (the database contains the bookmark owner). But it seemed this time around people are more interested. I guess there has to be a balance.
