Hey China, censor us again and the duck gets it!

A year and half ago we discovered that half our blogroll at Sensorymetrics was actually banned in China. Soon after writing about it, we were censored too. Using the terrific tool Great Firewall of China, it was easy to check. Unfortunately, it appears Chinese officials managed to derail it.

Another test site is available from Web Site Pulse. With all the controversy of China reneging on its Olympic promise to open up the internet, then grudgingly opening up the gate, we wanted to retest SM.

It appears all systems are go – at least in Shanghai and Beijing.

Test your own site here while you still can!

    I heard about people complaining on other blogs about it and I couldn’t believe that it was possible but I guess it is. I guess they really censor what they want or don’t want people to read or hear.

    Anyway my sites seem to be ok, that is good news :)

    China will continue to monitor the net for ‘bad thinking’. Good for you.
