cut the porn!

Everyone knows that China's censorship is having a meltdown trying to stop pornography on internet sites. Not only is their government selling newer PCs that will be packaged with surveillance and filtering software, but Google says it will take "all necessary steps" to remove pornography from its Chinese language portal, Google.cn

I love that the government seems to have so much control over censorship, but yet they're the top bootleggers - dvd's, cheap clothing, knockoff designer bags...I bet half of those porn sites come from China too!

With billions of people in China on the net ALONE...I say, Good Luck to the Chinese!

    It's always a bad idea censoring things. They eventually make the airwaves anyway, and usually in an underground and more perverse way than before.

    Most of the internet porn comes from China is my belief. My Google inbox
    is made for spam to be filtered to the spam folder. Heaps of porn comes in everyday and it's all from China. I highlite and delete the whole lot
    straight away without even reading it. 25/6/2009.

    If everyone that got spam sent it back to the server from whence it came would that crash their system? Just a thought.

    DonaldABuchanan, no it wouldn't crash the system of the spam sender because their addresses do not exist. I have already tried that before and all I get is mail error mailer daemon returning it back to me with a
    message that the address is not legal or non existent. Same thing goes for replica watches, viagra from the online Canadian pharmacy and so on.
    You click on the unsubscribe button in the e~mail and you get an error
    message, page you trying to find is not available or does not exist at this time. You try to send them a message on their website and you
    get the ordinary compose message page. Send the message don't contact me again and Mailer Daemon message comes returning your message back to you the address is illegal or non existent. It's different if you make an order to buy porn photos, sex dolls, viagra tablets, valium and other prescription medicines and designating amounts of money from
    your bank account or your credit card if you got one, it goes straight
    to the company via the website. If you don't make an order for these
    illegal products you can't send a message and it is always address not
    legal. 25/7/2009.
