That's more freedom than Texas

[–] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 14 points 9 hours ago

Basically any site that they don't have full control over/can't buy favor from and has the ability to spread info they dislike, even if it's something as simple as 2+2=4".

And if you're looking for someone outside of China to blame for their internet shield, Cisco was responsible for helping them set it up.

I can't be the only who thought the list would be long am I?

I'm sorry but you know too much. Come with me.

[–] Carrolade@lemmy.world 14 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Uh ... why SCMP? Isn't that a party-friendly newspaper anyway?

[–] OsrsNeedsF2P@lemmy.ml 3 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

SCMP is critical of China, but they do soften the blow

[–] Xyii@fasheng.ing 1 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

The list is not entirely correct.

From china

[–] NineMileTower@lemmy.world 11 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Change it on wikipedia!

Ironically.....

[–] Pxtl@lemmy.ca 1 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Fair point, but that means the ban should be coming from Department of Commerce, not the DoD.

Don't try to come up with bullshit excuses about espionage.

"We're banning these private-business Chinese websites because China bans our private-business websites and that's anti-competitive".

We should have done the same

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 21 points 14 hours ago

Hard disagree, censorship is not welcome in a free society. I dislike a number of those sites and haven't heard of most of the rest, but I wouldn't ban a single one.

[–] kava@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago)

Yeah let's follow China's lead and become just like them! I support restricting political freedoms and a giant firewall and a social credit system too.

They are obviously the superior system and therefore we need to emulate them.
