Would that be the famous David (gang of four) Vance?

As this report indicates, this is the latest in a number of measures that the Chinese Government has introduced in an attempt to restrict access to information other than their official version.

How about a MakePoverty[of information]History Campaign?

Good point Pete, but I fear we in the West should not be to self satisfied about this. I have no doubt some boffin is working away right now under the orders of the likes of David Blunkett, to find a way to restrict what we can view on the web, all for our own good of course. Whilst almost all politicians will tell you what a great thing the net is, if you look at their party web sites you get a better understanding of how the feel on this issue. When I last checked them out the majority of sites were stale and almost all lacked the means to have interactive content, thus being little more than a notice board or a powder puff for the Party elite..

Only twice Mick and that was when I had been censored!

Power to the people.

Comrade David

If things keep going like this China will soon be as bad as the US : at least the Chinese will still have lots of (imported)jobs to keep their minds off this erosion of personal freedoms!
