China Internet Censorship Goes Crazy
Filed Under censorship |
Are they going crazy? Before they would warn and order the webmasters to delete “harmful” information from their websites, sometimes they just blocked the website. But now thousand of websites would be blocked if they are so unlucky to be hosted by the same IDC company with a “harmful” website.
Yes, in the last month, most of the interactive website(including forum, guestbook, blog) in China were blocked by the Chinese authorities. Some believe this is because of the 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China opening, the Chinese authorities want a social stability.
Chinese authorities often blocks an entire Web site, even if only parts of the site contain sensitive information. Just in the last month, more than thousand of dedicated server in HeNan TeleCom room and ShanTou TeleCom room were closed forcibly. thousand of sites were blocked included those on health, education, news, entertainment, religion. Also they use the Greate FireWall to blocks some great website like FeedBurner and Flickr.
This month, the Chinese authorities will finish their jobs, closing the rest of “illegal website”. So when the 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China is opening, the Chinese cyberspace will become a very harmonious and stable.
Not a country renowned for freedom of speech, China has nevertheless outdone itself with more internet censorship that would make them proud.
Did they got crazy?
Should be:
Did they get crazy?
No, they are not recently going crazy. They have been shamelessly crazy all the time.
Chinese people should do something to stop these crazy things now.
@Moses, how can I do to keep the political dignitaries sane? And are anything we could do to stop them from being insane? Definitely NOT, what’s happing is just how the political might overrides anything in China, in a brutal and tragic way. I don’t know what bestows them with the power to uproot anything they don’t like. It’s modern world, we’re living as if we were back in the old tyrannies, like KuoMintang era, Qing dynasty or even earlier time. And now we ARE enslaved by what’s going on shamelessly in China. Shame on you: Chinese politics and the egomaniac governing party.
I have made my blog escaped from China!lol!!!
Did they got crazy? They begin to blocks all types of website…
这一句很容易让人以为中国政府要把中国全部的网站都关闭，其实你是指被同一个IDC公司托管的所有网站。也许可以改为这样：Are they going crazy? Before they would warn and order the webmasters to delete “harmful” information from their websites, sometimes they just blocked the website. But now thousnads maybe more websites would be blocked if they are so unlucky to be hosted by the same IDC company with a “harmful” website . 然后接下来介绍一下电信事件。
最后一句，“Not a country renowned for freedom of speech” (中国)不是以言论自由闻名的国家，和下面的China has outdone itself语气不衔接，你应该是想说 famous for its crackdown of freedom of speech a long time, 接下面的outdone才说得通。你的outdone显然是指电信事件，也就是crackdown of …。这一句里的them指谁啊？前面是用itself啊。outdone以后完全不通，窃以为直接outdone itself one more time就可结束了。
还是多读一下西方报刊，英文写作和中文完全不同，中文喜欢绕来绕去，西方更多单刀直入。
my web has been killed twice in three days. i’ve moved to dh anyway but still be GFWed……
ORZ……
s normal no worry as our great china, they should and allowed to do that, nothing particular, take it easy, guy…
6楼的兄弟还有意思——顶一个 也在伦敦吗？

都是国外人啊….真好…螃蟹都没得吃
Who keeps company with wolves, will learn to howl.
Thank you for reporting on this. You are serving a critical function.
That’s really crazy,almost driving me mad!
My small website with a forum was blocked today. I do not know why. It is just a small professional site about robot and robotics. There are so many personal technic website, most of which own their forums. If the authorities block all these sites, how to develop our science technology? As a Chinese, whenever I think and talk about this, I feel thar we are pity and the authorities are woeful. Who will finally blocked our democracy and development? It is not us, but we know who it is.
[...] vésperas do XVII Congresso Nacional do Partido Comunista da China (PCC para os íntimos) a censura à internet no pais enlouqueceu. Sites hospedados no mesmo servidor que sites bloqueados também foram censurados. Até coisas [...]
base on my stupid instinct,,,
i support your view on this “pround” action by those idiots.
I’m still vaguely holding out hopes that the Olympics will force Beijing to give the Internet censoring-craziness a break… (pathetic and weak as that hope might be)
Let’s Go aboard.
你写的很反动哦~ 呵呵
小心当成恐怖分子被美国佬给和谐了 哈哈！
It seem like williamlong‘s english is not good. Why you create this blog?
19楼的，应该是it seems like吧，不是it seem like,你的英语好像……呵呵
又给西方保守派与自由主义分子多一个理由妖魔化中国。何苦来哉。
22楼用词不准确,妖魔化的是”中国共产党”,不是”中国”.
你可能不在中国内地,不知道GFW有多讨人厌,任意世界知名的、大型的互动网站在墙后都无法正常访问。在Google中搜索任意关键词都时时刻刻又被GFW动态屏蔽的可能。
相当于，在中国内地只有“党和政府”的“河蟹”网站功能正常，老百姓离“互联网”还很遥远。
发现一处错误,”Also they use the Greate FireWall to blocks some great website like FeedBurner and Flickr.”此句中的Greate应该是Great吧?
in response to william (comment number 8).
china’s government is not great. china’s government is paraniod.
a paranoid man has no honor, he has a disease.
a disease should be cured, or cut out.
are you part of the disease william, or are you
part of the cure?
Im kinda very angry about what they did!
They blocked every websites that I visit often!
like: xanga, youtube and some of my favourite forums
I have no entertainment on internet in china =.=
If I wnat to visit those website..Do I need to go back my home to visit those website?
by the way, Do anyone knows any website that I can visit the blocked website?
it seems like e very good web site but my Chinese is not good. It would be great if it might be availible in English too. Thanks.
Proxies work fine (if a little slow). Just use a proxy to access the sites that are blocked.
[...] China Internet Censorship Goes Crazy - 2,921 views [...]
This is insane, and every second day, I’m literally going crazy. I own an internet business and all these f*** do is to topede my business foundations everyday by blocking harmless websites like sourceforge and others, totally unrelated to anything China. Just these days I had to find out they blocked GoDaddy which is one of my main hosters. How the f*** am I supposed to work like this? I employ 10 Chinese programmers and designers and pay them well. If it’s keeping on like this, I might have to shut down and leave this business- (and human rights-) unfriendly place…
Censorship Is Chinese Tradition.
They Block Thousands of IP Address mostly for PLEASURE. Upon Doing This, They Get Happy.
Most Chinese Don’t Care About Blockage, because Few of Them Can Speak English.
Billions of People Are Brain-Washed.
