Q: So, How's The New Anti-Pornography Restrictions Working For You?
Since the new anti-pornography movement has started, I can no longer access such pornographic sites as:
Theonion.com (I know why they are blocking this one!)
Stickmanbangkok.com
CBC.ca
Theoatmeal.com
and another 10 miscellaneous news and/or humor sites.
Add this to an already laughable restriction on Google (https, no less!) of three image searches before my personal censor wakes up and blocks that, too. I'm sorry that I have searched for such obscene terms such as "Airline meals" and "Pictures of people who love China excessively"
Yes, Great Powers of China, you have shown me the error of my ways by making it clear that you no longer want me to remain in your great Utopia (although, it's abundantly clear that you'd like my money to remain here). You've made it clear that an educator is not to educate using the latest technology or resources but he/she must rely on poorly translated and horribly inaccurate 1950's CCP-approved "facts".
Can we make a deal? I'll work for you and help you block the real threatening sites whilst you allow me to actually use the (*#^%#%*(&%^(^%(#%^(# Internet to do my job of teaching YOUR children!
Xie xie!
-P.S mike95ca and robk are CIA (Canadian Ice-skating Amateurs) insurgents! Feel free to alleviate my personal censor from monitoring me and dedicate his comradeship's time to blocking them (p.p.s: they read 'Doonsbury' and think it's funny).
Censorship is bulk and random for most cases.
The idea is more to shoot in the air to scare people than to make surgical strikes. They temper with as many foreign services as possible so masses do not get used to them. Which is why it can differ from a month to another. It is as much political than economical actually.
Dude i havent even spoken to you in weeks and youve referenced me twice today. Anyways. I get my porn from torrents. I can keep up with my bukkake newswoman addiction. At least for now....

However, no Bloomberg or The Guardian, despite Pulitzer reward few months ago.
You mean 'Reaganomics'?On a side note, does anyone actually read previous posts before answering/commenting? Doesn't seem like it.
Sino. This has nothing to do with China, someone has signed you up for The Truman Show II
I wish they were as ineffective at blocking youtube as they are at blocking porn.
Anyway, maybe they have a different definition of 'porn', but they did no tell anyone.
Try the onion again. Works for me.
Actually, I am pretty good at ice-skating... 
Why do you mention me and Mike? Do you still think we are the same person?
This quiz is essential if you plan to karate kick a bear where it counts

But theonion.com...c'mon, you know it's the most reliable source of ChinaDaily's news!
