Lebao’s name and works were revealed on a blacklist for printing in China even for foreign publishers in February 2019. The list was obtained by The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald. It was given to Australian publishers to censor political issues which are rejected by the Chinese regime. The list banned over one hundred dissidents’ related words from printing in China, Nobel Peace Prize Laureates, Liu Xiaobo, and Dalai Lama were included in the list. In his late interview with The Sydney Morning Herald, Lebao said: “China has just got more and more aggressive; they cannot be satisfied by their censorship in China, they would like to expand it to western countries, especially Australia since we have a large Chinese population.”

In 2018, Mr Wu participated in the Global campus movement "No my president", which was initiated by a large number of oversea Chinese descent students showing their rejection to Chinese Communist Party general secretary Xi Jinping. This movement spread to many western countries outside China, In Australian National University, Mr Wu posted many posts in multiple places.

In 2016, Lebao and his friends published an open letter on Change Org to support Wu Wei, a tutor from University of Sydney who burned his Chinese passport and then was attacked by Chinese students. In the letter, Lebao argued that “the burning of a Chinese passport is only Mr. Wu’s way of expressing political dissent.” It believes that Wu Wei “is becoming a victim of the Chinese government’s increasingly intrusive attempts to curb voices of dissent among overseas Chinese.”

Later in that year, Lebao took an interview with Woroni, the Newspaper of Australian National University, it showed he had started new studying in ANU then. Lebao is often harassed by Chinese students in ANU because of his political views and his refugee background. In September 2016, Lebao and his friend Alex Joske, who was a student journalist at ANU then, attended gala organised by Chinese student in their university. They were trailed to a bathroom by those Chinese Students and Scholars Association organisers. Lately in 2017, Lebao and Alex published an essay on Woroni, their University newspaper to expose the truth about Chinese Students and Scholars Association. They gave detail about the incident they experienced in the gala.

In May 2015, Wu, as a Chinese refugee, participated in a signatory of an open letter with Gu Yi appealing that Chinese Government end its secrecy over the Tiananmen Square massacre and hold those responsible to account. Mr Wu took an interview with The Guardian, in the report, Wu was titled as “China's lonely voice of dissent refuses to forget the victims of Tiananmen Square”. Wu told his story about his imprisonment in China, and his concern about the Chinese influence will impact the freedom of speech in Australia.
