    They never really accomplish anything.

    Mostly true, but sometimes they work... especially before an election. The regulator was eventually forced to back down by the govt.

    Water won't dissolve your teeth as much either.

    Accessing CP is a crime in Canada. It's even in the next subsection Criminal Code (163.1(4.1))!

    Accessing child pornography

    (4.1) Every person who accesses any child pornography is guilty of
    (a) an indictable offence and liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding five years and to a minimum punishment of imprisonment for a term of forty-five days; or
    (b) an offence punishable on summary conviction and liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding eighteen months and to a minimum punishment of imprisonment for a term of fourteen days.

  5. Re:Meh on Explore the Web From China · · Score: 1

    I had a similar experience. I was in Guangzhou a few weeks ago, and expected to run into problems reading western news. I tested a bunch of news sites (Canadian, UK and US) and they all came up fine. No problems with non-news sites either. This was from a home connection. The censorship wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be, but I wouldn't say it's all open either... a friend told me routinely uses Tor to get to some sites.

    My emphasis. At first glance, this sounds kind of scary to me. I won't be using chrome much unless I find a reasonable explanation to this clause.
