maybe it knows something you don't............ I've had a similar fight with Chinese websites. Short of shouting 'I'M NOT!!!!!' i went to a Chinese friend to do the same task on their machine.

It's a script.  It looks at your ip address and print on the screen, "You are in xxx province"  Some ads do this to impress you into buying their products.

Because Taiwan belongs to China. That is indisputable fact. The South China Sea belongs to China. So does Japan and the Philippines, and the entire Pacific Ocean, including Hawaii.

 

It is time that westerners accepted these truths, and stopped hurting China's feelings. China is powerful now!!

And so does North America.
