How r u surfing the web in China ? Among other stuff from the hotel, I can't open Bloomberg, vixandmore blog, I can't even access a european website selling optical gear to follow an order I made for a relative there. Besides considering how youtube links are prevalent on internet discussions, it's a bit frustrating trying to follow those from mainland china
Thanks for the link. it might be worse from the hotel I stay, as I get "Forbidden You don't have permission to access /.html on this server." whereas your link shows the link allowed in China. Bloomberg is confirmed blocked though Note that the viewdns link itself is not working without issues
I have said it before and will say again, China is and always has been a feudalistic society. Feudalism most closely describes the structure that has survived into today. Regarding the censorship and oppression, the MAINLANDERS at the heart of the matter are offcially blind aside from the few dissidents via CCP policy. Overseas chinese are not blind to this but need to keep their mouths shut or risk not doing business there. Expats are not immune as they likely have family and ties to the mainland. Unoffcially, everyone knows the game and has to play along.
