Banned again


I’m officially banned in China again. The same day they allowed access to the English-language Wikipedia site, they started censoring the Blogspot domain name. This means I can still post through Blogger, but I can’t view my site directly.

Who knew wacky, clichéd anecdotes were a mortal threat to the regime and our newly “harmonious socialist society?” Such is the lonely life of this capitalist running-dog. Sigh.

The censorship is just plain petty, really. You can use a proxy server like this one to get around the firewall. But using a proxy server means I have to view the content through frames with banner ads beckoning me to “Meet Sexy Singles in Your Area!” and “Find Someone to Fuck Anywhere in the World!” I try to keep my little piece of the Internet filth-free, but oh well.

I added this photo because it’s a classic Internet find (thanks Lexy!), and I still think it’s so hilarious. That cat's expression is pure comedy gold! Posted by Picasa
