i don't know that it will be that easy.

That's kind of my point ...

surely, not all of china connects through a single AS.

My understanding is that CN has been looking for ways and means to firewall
itself for years. It's not entirely fond of the wild and woolly Internet.

as well, i suspect that the same hackers would be able to
manage a dial-up into some extra-china ISP.

This is exactly why CN has been unsuccessful in their quest.
