Since 1990s', Beijing has been spending on building the Great FireWall, or GFW, legislation and projects initiated by the government, to attempt to regulate the Internet in Mainland China. Meanwhile, programmers have written codes to help Chinese Internet users to access sites blocked by GFW. For a moment, Chinese people seemed to be able to use VPN services to access the outside world, if they bother to try.
However, Beijing has tightened the grip by shutting down many, if not all, VPN services in China. Secret Polices were even sent to coerce VPN developers to stop updating the services. Mainland China is currently an island, walled from the currents of free Internet.
But NO ONE is an island and NO ONE should be. We hereby petition the Obama administration to help tear down the GFW!
