    Nice try, read the link carefully. "NTH" is not a word on it's own.

    Your grammar is FAR from perfect.. Again, paragraphs should be indented.

    Yes, multiple exclamation points are permissible, BUT, that's not what I complained about, I noted your use of the period after your exclamation points. An exclamation point replaces a period.

    I guess your father is dumb. My excuse? I'm Canadian. What's your excuse for being an asshole?

    I'm not American, nor a child, so I guess I need not respond to your American bashing...

    I have no problem with people correcting my faults, it's just people like you that don't know what the purpose of a discussion board that really pisses me off.

    English should be capitolized.

    Guess what, "Guess what" alone is NOT a complete sentence. If you can't use proper English you shouldn't be correcting other people. Do you like it when someone follows you around and corrects every mistake you make? (Are you a momma's boy?)

    I slack off frequently, what business is that of yours? :P

    Okay, first off, "NTH" isn't a word.

    Second, if your too stupid to figure out what I meant, that's your problem. Why don't you get a job working as an editor or something, you grammar nazi. This is a public discussion board, not a magazine editoral.

    Third, it's proper English to indent paragraphs.

    Forth, you wrote "!!!!.". Are you even aware that an exclamation mark ends a sentence? You don't put a period at the end, that just makes you look dumb..

    It amazes me how high and mighty AC's can think they are.. Yes, I realize your trolling, but the fact you got modded informative say's a great deal as well. How can someone who doesn't know how to form a sentence bitch at someone who uses an incorrect word? Get a clue, YOU'RE not that smart.

    Did you bother to read that link? It supports me 100%. First off, he criticized clear channel a whole YEAR before they took any action. I don't know about you, but I think a YEAR is a little long for a come-back.

    If you read the article you posted, it notes the strong relation to the Bush team and Clear channel. Why don't you research that? Why not research how much money Clear Channel gave to the Bush campaign? Oh yeah, and that link you posted, there is a link on HowardStern.com to that page, funny he would link to that article if it's anti-Stern, huh??

    BTW, have you seen the bill-boards that Clear Channel funds? Check out www.howardstern.com and go to his pictures section, it's photo #4.

    They block based on destination IP address, they use USA technology to do it. If you filter by http (port 80 - default) they couldn't surf anything at all, and that wouldn't make any sense in general..

    The easiest way to get around it is to used an encrypted proxy, or some way of re-directing your traffic..

  14. Re:Chinese Technology? on China Blocks Typepad, Prompts Weblog Blackout · · Score: 1

    Technically that would work, although extremely expensive, and on commi wages? You could use regular proxies as well, the reason anonymizer is better, if because it actually encrypts the communications between your web browser and their main server (anonymizers server), so if the government is _really_ monitoring you, or sniffing for suspicious packets and such, they won't be able to read them. The main bad part, is, as I said, anonymizer was originally set up by the CIA, so you have USA government watching you instead..

    So the FCC's job is to smash the 1st amendment? Is it to dictate during an ELECTION YEAR, the wishes of the president? Does "Democracy" mean a government "ruler" that makes his will the law??

    What does this have to do with China? Well, the FCC is walking a very thin line here, sure, banning a shock jock or two may seem like a baby step, but add enough baby steps together and eventually you'll wind up in Washington.

    It is blocked by the main routers the government owns, which route all internet traffic. It simply checks the TCP header for the destination IP address, if it is bound for a blocked subnet, the packet is dropped.

    How to get around it, well the CIA didn't like those commi's blocking information, so they set up Anonymizer ( www.anonymizer.com ) that would allow a type of encrypted proxy so you could get around that. CoDC also set up some sort of browser that could get around it, but I didn't really investigate it much (Same guys who made Back-Oriface)..

    Sounds like FCC / Howard Stern to me.. Congrats FCC, you are now offically, on par with Chinese Commi quality filtering.

    It's totally understandable that China's gov't will be overthrown if people are given free access to information, but it is totally unacceptable to see the FCC pulling these moves.
