SourceForge Blocked In China
Filed Under censorship |
SourceForge, the world’s largest development and download repository of Open Source code and applications, appears to blocked in Mainland China on the eve of Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. A screen copy of the command “tracert www.sourceforge.net” shows that the problem is a router inside China Telecom.
The current blocking may be related to the recent anti-China protests of Beijing Olympic Games, which began on 8 August in Beijing. Some days before, the author of a very popular free source code editor in SourceForge named Notepad++ start to boycott Beijing 2008, he said that the action is not against Chinese people, but against Chinese government’s repression in 2008 Tibetan unrest. The boycotting is surely a politic issue, but refers to human rights problems in China.
Is that the reason of this blocking? Chinese authorities regularly blocks access to websites that it finds objectionable, including those dealing with politically sensitive subjects. That’s what we have been. Blocked.
Gov have over used there right. and chinese people have no right. fuck!
computer.org is also blocked, which is an official webiste of IEEE.
On the eve of the Olympic Games?
I don’t think so. We still have weeks to go.
Anyway, it isn’t blocked. Another “my site has been down for ten minutes. It’s the Chnese government’s fault” story.

i was surprised when i found a web is blocked .it was only a technical web .why it was happened in china. only because the government is afraid of the imformation that it don’t like.
boycott the chinese olympic game.
Nah, it’s probably just windows. Windows is a POS that never works right.
What the hell? They’re communist, how can they block an open source website?
It is complicated political situation. I dont think i can understand. but Olympic Games is very important event for China, how chinese goverment repression Tibetan at this time. and even there was an earthquake…….that’s ridiculous!
Notepad++, fuck u
DIE FUCKING CHINESE SCUM OF THE EARTH, PERISH AND BURN ALIVE ALL OF YOU, THAT’S WHAT YOU DESERVE NUKE TO ALL CITY >> THE END OF A DEGENERATED PLAGUE <<
YOU ARE WORST THAN ANIMALS, YOUR NATION IS A FUCKING PLAGUE, THE ONLY THING YOU CAN DO TO MAKE DEGENERATED YELLOW TRASH BABIES AND POLLUTE EACH COUNTRY WITH YOUR FUCKING KIND SINCE YOUR OWN GOVERNMENT REALIZED WHAT A FUCKING SCUM NATION THEY HAVE THEY THROWING THEIR OWN CITIZENS OUT OF YOUR CONTRY
DIE FOR ALL YELLOW SCUM!!!
We really have a lot of problems to solve,I hope the gov can hear and follow people’s voices.
ip address 58.60.24.33 is located in US, CA, not in china. Its mean that ‘blockade’ is placed in us? anyway, my friends in china can connect to any site without problem, and he had no problem in the past.
In return, I will boycott Notepad++ from now on
As suggested above, the author himself may do a little more research to validate what really happened.
I just came across this post from digg. Pls delete my words if it sounds personal. I’ve unsubscribed the author’s Chinese blog, as I cannot agree with some (unrare) exaggerated and sometimes irresponsible comments. As a portal, not only a personal blog, I do expect to see more objective information.
imxiaozhu,慢滚不送。
Just know that everyone like do what he/she like to do. As you can object something, others can agree with it. No one is right.
I can confirm it’s completely blocked in Shanghai. You can still reach it with a proxy server.
I’m from mainland ,i need jboss!!!!!!!!!!!
i can’t access facebook.com in Guangzhou,shit!

wawawa….
I am in China and reading the above posts. It’s funny to me that all the posts about SourceForge. I can visit http://www.moon-blog.com which contains many posts against Chinese government. SourceForge is a pure technology site. Why does Chinese government not
block http://www.moon-blog.com? Use your brain about this. Don’t be toooooooooo stupid.
That is just a network problem. Nothing to do with the government.
Of course, you guys have the right to be stupid.
I couldn’t get into http://www.baidu.com/ in the past day. Any idea?
I haven’t been able to access sourceofrorge in the last 10 days, WTF!
I have nothing to say about that…
just push-up three times!!!
can’t open sourceforge downloads from Guangzhou, China. This is a bad blow to us if it was only because of a single author.
Well, I can confirm that it is not working here in Hefei, and is working over in Canada right now.
Just use a proxy if you need to access Sourceforge.
To end the debate–different telecoms in different regions of China have a history of blocking/unblocking sites in a non-uniform way across the country. Stop posting stupid slander at each other, you’re just making yourselves look ignorant. If you want to learn more about the issue, read some of the articles floating around about the blocking/unblocking of Wikipedia in China over the last 5 years (Wikipedia is currently unblocked across the mainland as of this posting)
As for the authenticity of the author’s post, I live in GZ right now and can confirm Sourceforge has not been accessible to me for around two weeks, except by proxy, which makes downloading nigh-impossible. It is likely for exactly the reason that the original blog post states–someone in the GFOC/PSB saw a few posts that they didn’t like, and *bam*, on some telecoms, the whole site goes down. Such is life in the PRC.
There are various descriptions from ancient times for the power stone, and it about each of the power stones
Various effects are described, and have been handed down.
- In feng shui, crystal has been treated as an important stone (power stone).
The fucking author of notepad++ should not be in Tibet. If he has been in Tibet 100 years ago, he would have experienced how a slave lives and feels with several knifes on his head.
99.9% of Tibetan have no human rights in the old ages when Dalai ruled Tibet. The only people who is against China are the offspring of slave owners in old Tibet.
Do you think it is ok for Tibet to go back to the slave age???
Though it’s not convenient, i can understand.
Come to China, you will know how beautiful it is here.
sourceforge.net is now blocked here in Harbin, Heilongjiang Province. I don’t like the CCP too much in deed, but as a Chinese I believe in our government. With the CCP’s leadership, China has changed a lot, how can a Chinese ignore this fact?
Most media are ruled by politicians, not only in China, but all around the world. Some politicians are claiming human rights in China for their own benefits, and they are fooling the western people!
It’s still blocked in Shanghai and has been for a couple weeks.
The website is accessible again now ^_^
