Porn Sites Still Exposed In China

crimeandpunishment writes "Could it be that internet censorship in China has a pecking order? Politics and human rights are bad — but porn is okay? The porn sites that suddenly popped up in China two months ago are still accessible, leaving people wondering if it's a change in policy, a glitch, or maybe a test by the Chinese Internet police. The Chinese government isn't saying, but one Internet analyst speculates, 'Maybe they are thinking that if Internet users have some porn to look at, then they won't pay so much attention to political matters.'"

    The communist party must not think access to porn is a human right or they would have taken it away.

    Come on people. When you submit stories about porn sites you need to include links to these sites. That way we may inspected the offending sites and judge for ourselves. Links people.

    I think it's a neat trick. It's a shot across America's puritanical bow while serving its prurient cravings.. And it will be a data miner's wet dream... hehehe
