Google and Facebook Banned in China
The other weekend, I had a chat with a friend in Shanghai, China through yahoo messenger. We talked about her work there and some personal topics. I also asked her how is the living in Shanghai, China. She told me that she loves Shanghai and she is doing good over there. Her employer are also good. I asked her if she has a facebook account. I was greatly surprised when she told me that Google.com and Facebook are banned in China. I remember what she told as I read the daily German newspaper, Neumarkter Tagblatt this morning. One article today also mentioned that China don’t only banned Google but Twitter, Youtube, Flickr, Technorati and other websites. I want to research later what are the inaccessible websites in China. if I am not mistaken these sites are not blocked in Hongkong and Macau where they have their own legal system. This is quite interesting. More updates to come about this.
