China Internet Users Hit Half a Billion

Posted by Soulskill on from the but-they-can-only-browse-eight-sites dept.

angry tapir writes "China's Internet population passed the half billion mark at the end of 2011 after the country added 28 million new users during the second half of the year. At the end of December, the country had 513 million Internet users, according to a report issued Monday by the China Internet Network Information Center. The number of users accessing the Internet from their mobile phones has also grown, reaching 355 million — more than the entire population of the U.S."

    * Shouldn't be a "big surprise" to anyone that comes to /. though... see my 'p.s.' below on that account!

    P.S.=> There's also a pack of trolls here, literally ADMITTED trolls, they run a domain called "trolltalk.com" in fact who do PRETTY MUCH THE SAME!

    Trolltalk.com = gmhowell, tomhudson, webmistressrachel, squiggleslash, ountertrolling, mcgrew, & other registered LUSER 'guises',

    They regularly cheat/game the moderation system, literally, in 2 ways:

    ---

    1.) Modding themselves up in collusion/teams

    2.) Modding down those they are stalking/harassing/trolling

    ---

    Think it's bullshit? Ok, fine - here's where they LITERALLLY ADMIT TO ALL OF THE ABOVE & how they cheat the mod system here:

    ---

    A.) countertrolling telling others how to moddown opponents as registered lusers 1st, then to logout to save your karma/cookie state of your reg'd luser account, & then to troll others via ac replies -> http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=2245866&cid=36491652 [slashdot.org]

    B.) mcgrew stating how he modded up webmistressrachel 5 times, & she's his "partner in crime" around here (probably SAME person with multiple guises is my guess) -> http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=2212152&cid=36361542 [slashdot.org]

    C.) I've literally CAUGHT a fool named clone53421 posting in the same post as clone52431 (notice the #'s appended, not the same)

    ---

    & plenty more I've caught doing bogus things around here to "fool the system/game the system"... would you like more? I can list them, in seconds!
