I've not been able to access the CBC since my arrival on the mainland, yet can access the BBC and CNN. What's up with that? What information does the CBC present that is so much more sensitive than what we can read on the BBC or CNN websites?

Come to think of it, why isn't this site blocked given that it is probably more critical than the CBC is?

What? Either you have been redacted or cannot assemble a legible post.

I'll quote myself to see how it comes out.

Hey AnnaG, can you do me a favour and quote the above post? I want to see how it looks on my side. This is just weird... though then again, I guess it shouldnt't surprise me.

I just checked the BBC this morning, and I can access this site too.

Considering the stupidity I read here, it surprises me that the PRC blocks the CBC but not this site.

:)

Very interesting. I decided to try to access src.ca (the French-language version of the CBC) and I could access it. I then tried cbc.ca again and still can't access it.

Very interesting.

I check the site daily. No problem. Seems odd though.

Are you in the PRC right now?

Could someone post a thread about a particular religious group? It's pronounced similarly to fallen gang. I want to see if I can still access this site afterwards, just for an interesting experiment.

I was walking down the street last night in the dark and I tripped and Falun Gong.

My companion said to me: "Are you Falun Dafa, as well?"

Maybe you'd have to post a link and cut and paste an article.

Maybe it's because I posted a nonsense statement and there is a whole bunkerfull of PLA Monitors running around in circles trying to decode its meaning.

Anyway, my Chinese built computer records my every move as part of a world-wide intelligence gathering effort on preparation of the "Great Roundeye Roundup" after they reclaim their Empire.

I'll try typing the words from here:

People suspect that the PRC government harvests organs from Falun Gong or Falun Dafa practitioners.

Ha! It went through.
