That's interesting. It's great to know there's still freedom in the world. :/

That's quite funny in fact.

The more you restrict information the more chance you have to give birth to someone who will do anything in his power to know

That's definetly an interesting article. I also noticed that the country only has one internet service provider plus yahoo and hotmail have also been blocked. I guess this is similar to how search engines in China limit certain content from searches as well.
