Severe internet withdrawal
Posted by charles in computers, the Internet on January 13, 2010
Ah, the great firewall of China. It’s been over two weeks since I’ve had access to facebook, YouTube (I have no idea what kind of video Tom embedded in the post below), blogspot, fmylife, Harvardfml, and select Wikipedia articles (including the one on the great firewall of china).
I’m almost having trouble wasting time on the internet; luckily, failblog and the Onion are still accessible. My Google searches are also limited although I was able to access images of the Tiananmen square incident while I was in Beijing.
Interestingly, Google is considering abandoning its Chinese operations.
More interestingly, why isn’t the most morally decadent site on the internet, 4chan, blocked?
Gotta go, angry voices are knocking at my door.
