Three major resistent factor in China's cyberspace

In China, we see an exiting figure on internet population, however, few real valuable content(as well sites) can be found in this cyberspace(if there is a boundary). I think there are three main reasons of that:

- Great Firewall, people can't free access the knowledge (whehter good/bad from their point), thus can't share all the opinions and even valuable science and technology content. It's the problem on Free Access.

- Blogging Damper, there are always "fears" when people do blogging. They can't publish their opinions(even citation) before re-thinking it's risks. Thus many important memes will stop spreading on it's routes. It's the problem on Free Speech.

- International Crosslinking, the language is the biggest barrier that Chinese internet users can't fully absort and export their intelligence to outside world. Translation is not always adequate to fill the gap. Thus many memes can't connect around the world, too. I think many US users can't get outside memes with the same problem. It's the problem of Language.

However, there is also a 'great' catalyzer in this cyberspace, that is "Copyright ignorance". People always copycats other's content without paying attention on the license related. It's a "good" factor for meme propaganda. It's dangerous with voilating game rules, however, it can be educated by cultural mutual-impacts anyway.
