It's to much trouble to filter each PC, so much easier to filter the Internet.

"It seems that as of today, the Chinese authorities have blocked internet access to Twitter, Flickr (Flickr), Bing (bing), Live.com, Hotmail.com and several other sites. Wordpress (WordPress), YouTube (YouTube), Blogger (blogger) are also blocked."

J: I was trying to be ironic. The Chinese gov't responding to popular pressure is so unlikely. My post had no intention of referencing USA Republican/Democratic duopoly.

The USA does not have a monopoly on those two words, nor indeed did it invent either concept.

Whenever you see someone type 'democrat(ic)' or 'republic(an)', it is not axiomatic that a comment is being made about the USA, and in my case such a comment was certainly not being made.

Wow. Some lame guy sees Democratic in it, and takes a shot.

It also has republic in it

People in it

Of in it

But somehow the guy thinks, it's only the *democratic* part which is so obvious

With low intelligence like that, no wonder they're basically the whig party at this point. Take something that means nothing, and take a shot at democrats, (and look very stupid while doing that).

It really IS 'Sad'. When you learn ANYTHING about government. ANYTHING, then start talking about politics. Until then you seem like the 2 year old trying to drive a car. Let the real problems be handles by the adults.

What US company was the software borrowed from? Why wouldn't they file a copyright violation? ohhhh China right.

Well, you see? It really *is* the People's *Democratic* Republic of China!
