I am not sure how blocking gmail has anything to do with democracy and "western values".
OTOH the "western values" on the Internet as we've recently observed include total worldwide surveillance, hacking everything at will, manipulation of social networks and so on, so maybe your "democratic" high horse is not so high after all.
- mkawia 12y agoSurveillance is not a democratic value even the US is doing it. I can't imagine if my government blocked my gmail . I'll lose not just my email,play, my app engine websites etc etc.
