You can't afford to have only an intranet. Not if you want to be a leading power. I even had problems looking up pages from small technology companies that were blocked. They don't have google. Baidu does not compare, not the slig

The ping would be terrible but if you ship a box of DVDs the bandwidth would be decent.

Tor does not work in China. You can't enter the network. You need something called "bridges". You have to send an email to get IP addresses of "entry points". If I remember right, you had to have an gmail email add

So true. Communication communication communication. 1. They don't have internet. They have something like an intranet. If you want to use baidu or oder on taobao, it will work. 2. Phone calls. Forget skype or VOIP. Make a big down pay

Sometimes. It depends on the day, time, location. Many things. A website may be blocked today but not tomorrow. Even gmail (web interface) worked on SOME days. It may be blocked in Shanghai but not in Beijing and vice versa. Port 443? Good

Most Chinese give a f. if something is illegal or not. Look at he xray machines that you are supposed to put your luggage in before you enter the subway. Many Chinese just walk by and ignore the complaining security girls. VPNs? Well, comp

Your experience may be old. VPNs are getting worse every day.

This blocking shit is so annoying. The Chinese shoot themself in the right knee, then in the left knee and say, look, we have the biggest balls! Yes, you may have the biggest balls, but you can't walk anymore dumbo! I experienced that

"Numa will retail for $349." Sounds pricey. The article is quite vague about how it works. I guess you can achieve the same with some configuration on FREETZ http://freetz.org/ with a Fritzbox. http://

You have to realize that some countries don't have internet. Like China, China does not have internet. They probably don't even know what Internet is. They think if they can order something from Taobao then this is Internet. Regar

"They make smartphones -- they're a hardware company." Actually, they don't make smartphones. They design and sell smartphones.

The US likes to fake the statistics and often revises them down later. The US might have REAL GDP growth. It's population grows about 1% per year. How much more GDP above this 1% does the US really have? This being said. How do you mea

I am not sure that Occams Razor speaks against it. 1. Reality can be simulated (to different degrees) 2. If realities can be simulated, it is more likely that you are living in a simulation than in the real world. By the way, the "simu

China does a good job in what it intends to do. Most non-Chinese IP websites are not blocked but traffic gets slowed down by factor 40. I have an offshore webserver. A ping suggests a 50% packet loss. Often you can access foreign websites.
