The Great Firewall of China - Dark Jaguar - 2nd June 2007

You may already know that China's government is still an overbearing dictatorship and has taken it upon itself to block all manner of websites that may speak ill of the Chinese government (the most positive thing we can say is with the whole world looking, they can't execute people for "crimes against the state" as much as they'd like to). What you may not know is what sites are blocked and what sites are allowed.

This'll allow you to test sites.

Our's is blocked. My guess is China bans entire IP ranges, OR they don't so much blacklist sites as whitelist ones they approve personally, blocking everything else.
