Banned in China?

Posted on March 12, 2007 by agentrickard

Monique Van Dusseldorp posting on the Poynter Institute website writes about the Great Firewall of China project.

The site purports to view any URL through a server hosted inside the People's Republic and to return information regarding whether your site is blocked or not. Interesting. According to the site, Secong Goose is banned, but my family site is not. If so, it is likely due to keywords (like newspapers and media) or the discussion of Drupal and open publishing technologies.

Banned

Though I'm not sure why the Goose would lead to Chinese sedition, I suppose that I'm proud to be banned.
