China blocking lots of blogs

By Paul Crowe

We’ve talked about Chinese motorcycles here and here and cars here and other products, too, on quite a few occasions, seems they want to play in the free world, sell in the free world and get money from the free world but free speech? Oooh, that’s too scary! They are blocking blogs, have been for a little while but they seem to be stepping up the pace, now all Typepad blogs are blocked. Blogger was restricted already and then Microsoft agreed to help restrict certain bad words like freedom and democracy.

Remember this if you’re thinking of buying Chinese.

    so what do you think? people are buying things made in certain place because there is high democracy or more freedom there? i don’t think so. they buy the best at lowest price possible.

    besides, if no one buys from china, its’ only going to worsen the situation, and eventually made it like North Korea. The danger for doing this is, China have been making Nuke boombs for over 30 years now and a mad & poor country can do anything unprediected.

    Yep, China is getting better, not worse. All of this commerse is raising the standards of living and opening their doors to capitalism, wealth, and ultimately, freedom.

    I have a two-tiered purchasing strategy: Quality first, then price. If the quality isn’t worth the price or the low price isn’t worth the sacrifice in quality then I move on.
