How China Censored Report On Censorship

The international human rights organization Reporters Without Borders and an organization called Chinese Human Rights Defenders obtained the official orders from the Chinese government issued to all Chinese Web sites and ISPs to CENSOR A REPORT ON CHINESE CENSORSHIP! The report was published by Reporters Without Borders in October. Censors in the Beijing Information Office simply lifted unique keywords and phrases from the report and ordered everyone to block them. Phrases included: "the workings of the Chinese Internet control system," "searches aimed at suppressing website content" and, of course, "Reporters Without Borders."
