After last year proved to the world what a non controlled social network could do... China will not allow FB to come back.  And with Weibo and Renren already filling the void, the competition already established would further discourage FB from being willing to make "changes" to be "China friendly."

I hope not

It would be disasterous for my friends list.

I don't think it'll ever be back..

yes, china will support facebook, in the future·······

Probably not.  China blocks it and other sites for multiple reasons.  The main one is "social harmony", but the secondary and just as important reason is so they can prop up the Chinese social networking sites that wouldn't stand a chance if the western bigboys were allowed on the playground.

They have done the same thing with lots of other industries as well.  Movies, animation, cars, etc...  All blocked for more financial reasons than social ones.

there are 2 important reasons why the gov banned facebook. 1 . competition (if your home grown companies cant beat them , ban them) 2. the free exchange of ideas goes against everything this gov stands for

so the ban will never be lifted by this gov 

Ummm...let me think.

Nope. Probably not.

If Facebook would agree to censor Chinese citizens' content, then yes, FB would be allowed in China. But I dont think Fb will go the same route as Twitter and concede to censoring. 

Only if you believe, from the bottom of your heart.
