Q: Angry Birds is subversive content
I can understand blocking Pinterest. I mean, we wouldn't want people reading romantic poems or getting ideas of how to decorate a home, plan a wedding, or make enjoyable lessons. But now it seems our benevolent friends in Beijing are protecting us from apps. Anyone else having trouble accessing ALL content from outside the mainland?

Hey, if you let some cartoon birds express their anger then before you know it the masses will want to express all their anger too and THAT would be unacceptable.

I didn't really enjoy or letting my kids see mighty eagle take a piss front of young angry birds during that movie lol. So yeah maybe the app is too violent. I better get my wife to delete from Frozen game, might freeze the phone.

China will completely block access to much of the global internet as part of a sweeping crackdown aimed at suppressing dissent and maintaining the Communist party’s grip on power.
The government has ordered China’s three telecommunications companies to completely block access to virtual private networks, or VPNs, by February 2018, Bloomberg News reported, citing anonymous sources. The three internet providers, China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom, are all state-owned.
Stiggs:
I read somewhere a few weeks ago that the plan to ban VPNs was denied by Beijing, they were saying it wasn't going to happen yet the story keeps coming up.
Who knows what the real story is.
