this is really getting old. china seems to have a new mao up its collective
pigu. yep, the internet censors are out in force. all blogs are blocked,
youtube is blocked, email is blocked, forums are blocked, college websites
are blocked, most circumventors are blocked. there are only a few left that
still work....it's only a matter of time. hard to find new ones since they're
blocking the search engines too. last i heard, there were upwards of
40,000 volunteer censors, mostly college students, surfing the net looking
for potentially subversive material to blacklist. and it be a loooong list.
so they're either blocking completely, or redirecting, or hijacking or whatever.
in short, surfing the net is no longer a pleasant experience. no, it sucks.
adding to the annoyance factor is that all these isp blocks are really
slowing down the download rate for what's left. strange, they for some
reason allow porn through. go figger. anyway, i'm so happy to be leaving
this maoforsaken pesthole. jeeze, tell me again why you're still 'developing'
after 5000 years of gloooooooooooooooooooooorious history. savages.
so if i don't log on for some time, i'm stuck behind the great firewall.
woohoo! six weeks and counting!!
