Google's back in China, sort of

Reuters News Agency

Beijing — China has restored access to the popular search engine Google, but is still blocking Internet users from content it deems politically taboo as part of a media crackdown ahead of November's pivotal Communist Party congress.

Please check out Peek-a-booty . It is a spin off from Hacktivismo and The Cult of the Dead Cow. They are writing a program that allows you to surf uncensored. You run a client on your pc that connects to a peek-a-booty node and then you surf the web using that other computer's uncensored net connection. Its kinda like anonymisers, vpns and ssh tunnels. It is also like distibuted.net, SETI@home and Gnutella in that it requires many people to give up thier computing resources.

The linked page also has a webpage (php) that will let you use google off of their server. Have fun.

slight - that is a great site...thanks for digging that up for me.

nic - i do indeed have a chinese name 'An de Long' (I am totally butchering the spelling of my own name i am sure)....in any case it means something to the effect of 'Quiet, Moral, Dragon'

booyah.

and speaking of names, i have become the bestower of english names in my office. so far Conrad (closest to Comrade that I could get); Arwen and Galadriel. I am hoping to name the tech guy Gandalf cause he gets stuff done.

ta ta from china.
