What personality flaw do individuals in the Chinese government posess that causes them to walk down the path of ever-tightening control while simultaneously becoming more educated as to the potential damage of their choices to tighten the noose? Can they not think enough to figure out how to save face? Can't they just do something like claim "their people are better are the rest of the world and can therefore self-manage and the Chinese government can reduce costs and streamline its objectives... etc." That would be excellent.

i think the reports coming out so fast and people pointing out the obvious workarounds show that resistance is futile. this type of censorship will not work. where there is a will, there is a way!

"I love guugle" too. (note: the 'uu' was put in place of the jugs)

No way in the world you can block ALL porn with a filter. No way at all. You can make it very very hard, but always a % will slip by.

[citation][nom]Pei-chen[/nom]I can't believe you cited The Hindu. Why don't you cite a YouTube channel next time.[/citation]
Yhea, because it's not an american or european source it must suck right, I think it's time you pull your head out of your... well, you know.

And regarding the news, China will eventually give up, they can't fight human nature forever.

I can't believe I read such an article, sometimes the truth is less believable then fiction. It's a total mess. Even the Pirate Bay trial had better organization.

Funny, if we talked like this in China I bet we'd get executed. I guess that's not funny!
