china's internet censorship

Hey all,

This is the link to my article:http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2002/12/03/tech/main531567.shtml

This article is basically about the censorship of different websites in china, as china is a communist country, therefore they are very careful with what their citizens are receiving into their head. China censors different types of website that demonstrates, different view of issues and articles that could change peoples thinking of communism.China censors website that talks about different issues with the china government and their issues they face with other countries like Tibet and Taiwan.

I personally feel that china might be keeping their people unknown bout the things that are happening in the world, they only let their citizens hear the good new yet bad new are kept away, this may cause some problem such as people not being educated fully on their own country's issues.China citizens may also have a problem surfing different website as majority are bring censored and this gives a lack in information that is available for them.


The assumptions i gather from this is that China controls their citizens movement on the internet, there is really no free expression on the internet.China also keeps a strong eye on their internet especially the political aspect of the internet

That all i have and can think off


Thanks
Rachel
