Speaking of China...

As a meeting nears, China pulls plug on Google

By Associated Press, 9/4/2002

BEIJING - China has blocked access to the popular US Internet search engine Google, amid government calls to tighten media controls before a major Communist Party congress. Attempts to look at the site through Chinese Internet services yesterday were rejected with a notice saying it couldn't be found. Users and consultants who monitor the Chinese Internet said the site has been blocked for several days.
