The new restrictions will be more strict and the officials are requiring all internet cafes and business owners to implement it. There's an article on RFA that really explains it.

It's on their homepage (search Radio Free Asia) or under Tibetan News

Very clear. Exactly factual. And yes for many Chinese the truth hurts!

These wang ba are required to record individuals' official identification and file their customers' online activities for 60 days.

If a user tries to access inappropriate Web sites, the wang ba is supposed to disconnect the user and file a report with a state agency. If a violator is found, punishment can include fines and, reportedly, imprisonment. Given the huge number of users, however, this practice is not always enforced.

Individuals working or volunteering with state agencies patrol emails and blog posts. Search engines such as Google and Yahoo have agreed with the government to calibrate their search engines to comply with the country's filtering. Chinese search engines such as Baidu, China's most popular search engine, also comply.

Of China's estimated 210 million internet users, most log online at public computers or Internet cafes, known as "wang ba".

How Internet Censorship Works

The Central Propaganda Department is responsible for overseeing censorship in China. Several separate state agencies censor online content by blocking websites, blogs, bulletin boards and e-mail.

There is a variety of ways that online information is censored. When using a search engine, certain keywords have been limited to provide filtered search results. At times, an error page will appear. At the highest level, selected IP addresses are blocked.

[residentfan2]

We get cheaper goods and China gets more jobs. The Chinese have had a large increase in their standard of living. However, the United States was not balanced in this trade off and we are seeing a loss in our dollar's value. I cannot blame the Chinese people for these events, these are circumstances being brought forth by a government they did not elect and do not control.
