More on China's IPv6 Network Buildout
photojournaliste writes "China has developed and demonstrated its first high-performance network core router based on the next-generation Internet standard known as IPv6, which the country officially inaugurated earlier this week." There's also a CNet story, which has a bit more information than our earlier story.
One has to wonder what vested interest China has in implementing new protocols, especially with a view to becoming a leader amongst world powers when it comes to the internet. Especially when one factors in the way information is controlled (alright, less and less, but still controlled) in China at the moment.
Isn't this self-defeating for a communist country as it exists now?

I wish Americans would roll out some Shut The Fuck UP, we don't care about your definition of "Freedom" which means bowing down to Jebus, gender descrimination, persecution of muslims, illegal wars of aggression, becoming obese pigs and watching propoganda TV like Fox.
How come America has only 1/3 of the population of China yet has TWICE as many people in prison?!
Is that your idea of Freedom? A prison state were blacks and latinos provide cheap prison labor for companies too lazy to outsource like a decent capitalist? Maybe if you stop trying to conquer other countries like Vietnam and Iraq and free some of your millions of prisoners we'll give a shit about your "Freedom".
