Shanghai Bob

I got back from visiting Manny in the Philippines yesterday to find I couldn’t access this site.  It had been blocked by the Great Firewall of China.  I got my host’s support team to change the IP address, so let’s hope it was just a mistake and not criticism from the censors.

Here’s a relevant article from The Atlantic on “The Golden Shield”. I’ve met a lot of people here who don’t know what proxy server is or where to find one and just stop reading various sites they can’t access from China.
