Red terrorism

There are many incredible things happened in China's blogosphere in these days. The first thing is many BBS sites in unversities were orderred to close, covering almost all famous BBS sites such as the one in Tsing Hua Unversity. Many bloggers(see trackbacks) expresses their angry, like klogs, maomy, Why thinking, wang, etc.

I wrote on CNBlog that not only BBS is dying in China as a majoy window to watch China's public voice, but also those centralized Blog hosting services. They are all very easy to be blocked or orderred to shut down by gov. I'm happy to see that more and more netcitzen and bloggers realized it and moving to more distributed blogging solutions.

But another funny thing is that China government is commanding all internet web sites to register(including personal web sites)[via zheng]. If you have a web site hosting in China, e.g. abc.com, you should register under China gov central database first. They want to control the whole internet in this way, but I think it's so foolish they didn't understand how huge the web will be and the explosion of internet objects will eventually flood their stupid effort.
