China Hijacks Popular BitTorrent Sites

Posted by timothy on from the state-is-still-not-your-friend dept.

frogger writes "China is not new to censoring the Internet, but up until now, BitTorrent sites have never been blocked. Recently, however, several reports came in from China indicating that popular BitTorrent sites such as Mininova, isoHunt and The Pirate Bay had been hijacked. The sites became inaccessible, instead redirecting to the leading Chinese search engine Baidu."

    Wow, 0 posts and this story is already tagged censorship. The US does the same thing or worse, and that's protecting business interests... but China? No that's censorship. Point out that it's censorship in the US and prepare to be modded troll.

    Gotta love the blind nationalism on /.

    To be perfectly honest with everyone here, I don't understand why Asian women are so desirable to non-Asians.

    Yeah, we get that smaller bodies == tighter pussies but, using that logic, do all women with big lips give great head? It's like saying that Nigger women are the best at sucking dick. Probably because they wolf down whole watermelons at a time, but that's beside the point.

    Most Asians in America choose to embrace only the worst aspects of both cultures. I'd kill myself if I were born an Asian man, as my dick would be embarassingly miniscule as compared to that of a caucasian, or especially that of a negro; I'd be frequently put to shame by the cat I'd be eating for dinner tonight with my 12 relatives sharing my 2-bedroom apartment with me.

    It's not like they're actually REAL PEOPLE or anything. Tell me you've never crushed ant. Well, Chinese are pretty much like ants. Feel free to crush away!
