China blocks Skype: Other Country Websites Blocked

By
China has made Skype illegal, according to state media. Here are some other sites it has blocked.

Facebook

The most famous site in the world of social networking has been blocked in China, without any explanation, because just when ethnic clashes between Muslims and Han Chinese broke with the western province of Xinjiang, in July 2009.

Mark Zuckerberg, the site's founder and CEO, expressed his desire to make a copy online at China Facebook. "How can you connect to the world if you go to the 1.6 million people?" Recently commented.

Before Christmas, visited Mr. Zuckerberg Beijing and Shanghai and met with Robin Li, founder of Baidu, the Chinese search engine, Wang Jianzhou, CEO of China Mobile, and Charles Chao, the manager of Sina, the One of the biggest portals in the country. Analysts said they expected to come to "make a deal" with the Chinese government to have access to Chinese Internet.

However warned Global Times, a newspaper run by China's leading state that Facebook may be difficult to challenge national clones that have arisen in his absence, and with RenRen Kaixin001 raise about 100 million users between them.

Google

search engine in the world's most successful, China shut down its servers in the first years after sustained pressure from the Chinese government.

Google said it was not willing to censor in order to comply with Chinese law, and had suffered a serious attempt to hack the source, who suggested that perhaps China.

Chinese users can still use Google, but search queries are routed to servers in Hong Kong society. The migration means that Google is no longer censored search results internally, so that the responsibility for the Chinese government.

While Google has maintained its offices in Beijing, China, its share of advertising revenue has steadily declined since its decision to withdraw from the country. The latest research report, Analysys International, a Chinese Internet research firm, said Google had dropped from second to third, behind Baidu and Alibaba in terms of market share.

Google now faces the prospect of losing to Google Maps, when the regulators warned that China could not perform the service outside the continent without a license.

Twitter

The world's most popular microblogging site, where users share their thoughts with others as a message of 140 letters, is also blocked in China, despite having expressed interest in operating on the continent.

However, Twitter has become popular among Chinese activists who connect to the service routing your Internet connection through foreign servers. For example, Ai Weiwei, Chinese artist who currently has an exhibition at the Tate Modern in London has great service and uses Twitter to alert his fans on his fate.

Earlier this year Mr. Ai used Twitter to invite hundreds of people across China to attend a banquet in his studio in Shanghai, who was about to be demolished.

YouTube

Although China has relaxed censorship of Internet hosting porn sites, YouTube is not accessible by March 2009. YouTube said it had no idea why the site was initially blocked, but the problems of its owner, Google with the Chinese authorities are unlikely to have helped his cause.
