Hi,
I would like to comment on Sebin's opinion (technical side, not
political):
Point 1: Circumvention tools:
Though I know a few circumvention and data analysis tools, I didn't
know that there was a guide for it. Thank you very much for the
link! :D
Point 3: Blocking Twitter:
China is ex
I am extremely sorry .. for using the word freaking !! .. I really
didn't mean it, I was on the pretext of its meaning to be something on the
lines of 'scary' rather than what you pointed out [somehow I used that word
to represent horror movies for years .. and never actually checked the

Jikku, please mind your words. This is a public forum. If you use such
words, I can react in the same fashion. T
I may also point out that RMS himself keeps these matters separate from
Free Software issues. All of us know (I hope so) that he is a person who
reacts to all kinds of oppression and curtailment of freedoms. He has

I never understood this usual freaking statement "Google is soon turning
another monopolistic mega corporate". And unlike anything ever in the
business it is giving us choice, also no body is forcing anyone to choose
their service. And it is perfectly possible to live without their services
too. Th
I was really reluctant in participating on this debate, not because the
topic does not interest me, but because I thought this is not the venue for
the same. But as this thread grows to be a hot discussion topic, I changed
my mind, and am posting my take on it.

I have to agree with what Sasi sir says. He highlighted the point
that I was also trying to make. Ban of FB and twitter in China is the
least of the problems there. And it is not as if we don't have enough
problems here. If we start reacting to every one of those, we will
soon loose sight of our
Yes there are more burning issues in every place than blocking of a couple
of sites. But I think this should be posted here in this forum for the
following reasons:
- This issue is in fact very much related to the the the philosophy of open
source software.
- This is affecting a very large populat

I think we are over-reacting to what the Government of China has done. I
don't mean that they can do such things. What I mean is that there are
hundreds or possibly thousands of such issues, even more serious issues,
in India and other parts of the world. If this mailing list starts
discussing all

Yes, that is exactly why I wanted to start such a discussion. As it is a *
must* that at least all the users in this small group be perfectly aware of
such an issue.
*Importance of protest:* Yes, there seems nothing that we can do rather than
discussing. But perhaps this might motivate someone in

Yes, It is doesn't relates with Free Software movement.

In my perspective it is the most important freedom of a person that is being
breached in China !! And I think that the seriousness of the issue will not

Well, There is nothing we can do about it, is there?
It is, but then that is the decision of a country. And I do protest that
personally.
And we can also protest on it in some way, an effective way.
