No Twitter For You This Tiananmen Square Anniversary Day

10:35 Jun 2nd, 2009 | Notes

It continues to amaze me that the Chinese government continue to think that they can impose such stringent censorship of the internet and still believe it works! Then again, when I was in China, the family I was staying with didn’t understand our bicameral, multi party electoral system when I tried to explain it to them. They were surprised to find that we had different parties we could vote for.

Okay, so censorship is working. Thank goodness I’m not in China at the moment because HOW COULD I LIVE WITHOUT TWITTER!?

TechCrunch says services like Twitter, Flickr, Bing, Live.com, Hotmail.com and Blogger have all been blocked in China as of today in the lead up to the anniversary. You may also be interested to know that my blog is also blocked in China! Yay! How exciting!
