China: Threatened by American Internet censorship - 0 views

  •  
    After the Secretary of State in the US Hillary Clinton's speech on Internet freedom, open source source code repository SourceForge.net blocked access to IP addresses originating in Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan and Syria. Open source software provides important infrastructure to these oppressed and developing nations. I hope the American government can see what a blow this is to the infrastructure and fledgling industries in these countries.

Analysis: Google-China flap déjà vu for Microsoft - CNN.com - 0 views

Trade war tensions rising between Beijing and Washington, as U.S. legislators howl about unfair Chinese business practices and the Chinese media assail American arrogance. No, it's not the current battle between Google and China -- but the fight between Microsoft and Beijing in March 1994.
  • "They [Microsoft] need to get on the right side of human rights rather than enabling tyranny, which they're doing right now," said Rep. Chris Smith, a Republican from New Jersey, in a congressional hearing on Wednesday. Microsoft issued a statement, saying it would work with the Chinese government to foster a more open Internet -- but it would not leave. Perhaps because of its own thorny fight with China more than a decade ago.
