THE GLORIOUS People's Republic of China has shut down one of the most popular blog sites claiming that it is too vulgar for the previous snow flakes which are the nation's youth.

Founder of the Bulldog bog, Luo Yonghao, was told to shut the site because it contained "harmful comments on current affairs".

Since intellectual discussion has no place in the Glorous People's Republic, the site has to shut down. Last month Bulldog had a million subscribers a day. µ

@Steve

Makes you wonder if this site even has an editor any more, huh?

Typo?

Did you mean "precious snowflakes" per chance rather than "previous snowflakes"?

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?

Yes, companies should suffer an immediate death penalty upon being accused of copyright infringement.

Yes, the coppers said the company was breaking the law so it must be guilty.

No, the company and the people accused are innocent until proven guilty.

No, the company had millions of customers who have been harmed by having access to their data files cut off.

I don't care, I never used Megaupload anyway.
