China Tightens Rules For Educational BBSs
An anonymous reader writes "China is tightening control over online BBS run by colleges and universities. Educational institutions in China have received direct orders from the Chinese Ministry of Education requiring their BBSs to take actions including access limitation and registering users by their real identities, as well as strict content censorship. The admin team of the BBS of Nanjing University has refused to obey the order and has been dismissed."

While many people were killed in those protests (about the same percentage of protesters as were killed at Kent State, but far more total protesters and deaths), there are no reports that I have ever come across as to people being "run over" by tanks. In general, people there died from being shot. There's this common notion that tanks were running over people because of the famous footage of a man standing up to a tank; however, he wasn't run over (and in fact, stood his ground for over half an hour, before jumping up *on* the tank to talk to the driver, and then being pulled away by others into the crowd). To this day, nobody knows who that man was; he was initially identified as Wang Weilin, but documents suggest that this name is wrong.
