I applaud the blocking of p orn
I dont like the discussion of serious life issues being censored but I applaud the blocking of p orn sites. P orn does no one any good. It exploits women. It appeals to our dark nature to be getting our jollies off watching others do intimate things. Numerous studies link p ornography consumption with a host of social ills. Plus it is so easy for children to see things that they dont need to be seeing at that age.
this is stupid
google.com is not accessible here in shanghai
this critical more reporting needed
this is critical, though breifly got on through a webproxy, no reason on earth to be blocking gmail which is separate server, also I think it may be impossible for Google to comply without changing itself worldwide and they will not do that.
