OMG China Blocks Us!
China is touted as having the world's most sophisticated firewall in the world. I don't believe it's any more sophisticated than my Netgear router. Probably just looking for words like "anti" and "red" during meta tag searches. In any case, China thinks I'm some anti-communist parading as an ordinary blogger.
Well you know what? You've found me out. Kudos to you China. You've won, but it's too late. Soon I shall topple your government and take over. MUAH-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
On a serious note, I'm not sure how accurate this site is since I see trackback URLS from China all the time. So somebody over there is reading.
Check to see if your web site is blocked
UPDATE: Some Chinese readers have pointed out this blog really is blocked, but some have found ways to circumvent the proxies. It seems China blocks anything with the suffix "ism" in it.
