  1. Re:censorship equals repression on Foreign-owned Hotels To Install Firewall In China · · Score: 1

    Do you want evidence of the China's use of the death penalty, torture and detention without trial and the persecution of human rights defenders?

    Check out the websites of human rights organisations such as Human Rights Watch, Human Rights in China and Amnesty International.

    Censorship is displayed thro China's Government controls on what journalists write and who they interview, what schools publish in textbooks, what statistics citzens are allowed to know and what TV programs you can easily watch. When information is controlled, censored or blocked there is no transparency.

    In relation to the death penalty: Chinese citizens, along with the entire world, don't know how many people are executed in China each year - the Government says the statistics are a state secret.
    That seems like censorship to me.

    What do you say the goal of Chinese censorship is?

    The Internet should be a medium for the freedom of expression, not repression. Censorship helps Chinese authorities hide the true extent of human rights abuses - their use of the death penalty, torture and detention without trial and the persecution of human rights defenders. http://uncensor.com.au/uncensor/
