The Chinese government has just made it mandatory for all internet users in China to download a software called Green Dam-Youth Escort Software. This software, while sounds relatively harmless, infringes many rights of the individual. It essentially is suppose to block harmful pornography from the baring eyes of helpless children. However at the same time, it censors potentially harmful political information or other resources that the regime considers dangerous. It doesn't stop at the internet however, it also attacks your other software. If you are typing illicit words in your word processor, it will close the application out. Sounds wrong right? Cause it is! It is our natural right to choose what we say and view! The Chinese need to fight for their rights. Rise up and fight big brother!
