China Steps Up its Blogging Persecution

Via CNN:

The announcement comes amid a media crackdown by President Hu Jintao's government, with Web sites being shut down and journalists jailed.

The same China all internet companies as Yahoo and Google so happily went into business with. How American companies, whose industry is INFORMATION DISSEMINATION such as Google can go into business with those who want to REPRESS information is beyond me.

The only thing man has to fear is fear itself? No longer holds true. Man has now decided to fear information and education, because well you really can't control people that have access to enough information that with the right education know when they are being lied to.
