Q: Can Facebook be accessed in China?

I have heard that the Chinese Govt is thinking about relaxing their stranglehold on internet censorship, and opening up sites such as Facebook and Youtube in the very near future. Can anyone confirm these rumours??

Hey Ludovico

I dont know where you have that information from, but it is definetely not my impression that the government is relaxing the control on the net. Actually it is my impression that they are turning the screws on the net recently. I think this has something to do with the upcoming 90 years anniversary of the party.

Normally when china is nearing big days like the 60 years or 90 years anniversaries the control get stronger.

I can confirm that it's a rumor. Oh. That wasn't what you asked. Well, who knows what the government is thinking about doing? Today, FB is blocked, as is YouTube and Twitter and who knows what else. Google VPN and move on.

Even Gmail in Shanghai works wired let alone opening up sites like Facebook!

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
