10 years in a Chinese prison for forwarding an email using a Yahoo account

Yahoo isn't the only villain

The Internet giant is just one of many tech firms propping up China's totalitarian ways.

Which company has committed the greater evil? Yahoo Inc. helped send a reporter to prison by revealing his identity to the Chinese government. Cisco Systems Inc. helps send thousands of Chinese dissidents to prison by selling sophisticated Internet surveillance technology to China.

If bad press is to be the judge, the "stool pigeon" Yahoo is clearly the bigger villain. In 2004, after the Chinese government ordered the country's media not to report on the 15th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square protests, journalist Shi Tao used his Yahoo e-mail account to forward a government memo to a pro-democracy group. When China's Internet police -- a force of 30,000 -- uncovered this, it pressured Yahoo to reveal Shi's identity. Yahoo caved quicker than you can say Vichy France, and Shi is doing 10 years in a Chinese slammer for one click of his subversive mouse.

i found it kind of ironic the senators were giving yahoo shit calling them "moral pygmies" for following a court order from china and handing over the information. While at the same time they would shit bricks if yahoo ignored u.s. court orders.

China is on the brink of a massive change for the worse - a man was shot recently for butting in line to get fuel for his auto - they have major fuel shortages, massive pollution, over population... and they make toys out of feces, fertlizer and lead so that Wal-Mart can make a nice hefty profit

Agreed. China is living in a big lie, they portray themselves as the next superpower, with a Japan-style economy, while it's kindda obvious that our planet resources can barely handle 200-300M middle class Chinese, with a GDP of only $2k / year, 20x less than in the US, and highly concentrated. If we can't handle such a small Chinese middle cass with low wages, how can Communists and Chinese themselves seriously believe that we will ever see a 1.5 billion people nation with .... even $10,000 yearly GDP, let alone 20k or 30k. Just do the math, we would have to surrender all our oil, metals, trees, water, coal, gas....etc. A rich China is just an utopia like Communism. Doomed to fail.

China: Olympic's lie

Chongqing: Economic boom at the expensive of workers and farmers.

Japan has been sucking our financial resources for decades, we can't let China turn our Western democratic world into a Thirld World waste area.

Europe and the US trade on fair terms, China and Japan are not interested in such two way trade. They manipulate their currencies and make sure their populations are not going to use their money to buy our products.

China and Japan must go, and quick.

If u think we need China and Japan, let me tell u that our purchasing power is lower than it was in 1970. The capital lost is in South East Asia and Japan is the world's largest creditor.

Google has been pimping for China for years. And so have the Clintons. :upsidedow

Anyways, China will grow old before it grows rich or powerful. But that doesn't mean that they won't lash out before their decline.

Yahoo sucks for caving, but was following a court order.

HE was fucked in the head to be using Yahoo in the first place!
