Body paragraph 4

I have very strong and not so strong feelings about the internet censorship in China it’s horrible in some aspects and totally justifiable in others. It’s justifiable in some ways because the government has stopped the spread of nasty rumors child porn sites and sites that sell women and children as slaves. Their censorship has also stopped the right to free speech and any kind of cartoons that demonstrates the government as unhealthy or restraining of the internet. It’s appalling to me how fast this has all taken place within the last 3 years. Our own government does this to us in slight little ways with sites that haven’t gathered much attention yet that they find disturbing or not suitable to be “leaked out”. We should be grateful that our Gov. has not abused its power the way the Chinese government has. Personally I think the Chinese government is hurting itself more than helping itself.
