It seems in China, if you say or text the word 'protest', your cell phone is immediately shut down. They have also been doing the same thing on the internet and gmail.

This really bothers me. I know it's China, but it tells us the it really, really easy for the Government to control all electronics.

Wonder if that hugh underground group of super computers is monitoring every word Americans write or say?

My husband works in China. He's there year round. We have to watch what we say to eachother on the phone, texting and emails. He can't even access Facebook, China blocks it. We have a slingbox so he can watch American tv, well they blocked that too. I could go on and on about what gets blocked over there.

MB, I think you already know the answer to your own question.
