OMG Chinese….. They have become a powerful country in the world now. Chinese products are everywhere. But Chinese government sucks when the topic comes to the internet. This problem is not about their speeds
. China has the worlds biggest firewall AKA Great firewall. I think you know that
. So recently Chinese government included one of biggest sites currently drooling over the internet. That is “bing” microsoft’s new search engine which competes with google. Looks like china sailing a tight ship by blocking famous sites such as Twitter, Flickr, Bing, Live.com, Hotmail.com, Blogger and a number of other sites. According to china the reason is politics lol.
It is so sad to think that one of the biggest countries in the world and such a huge economic powerhouse is keeping its people from information, interaction and exposure to the rest of the world.
It amaze me that there's parts of the world where people live in ignorance of the rest of the world. The question is: are they better of or worse of that us that are somewhat "overexposed?"
