Whitelist

China will soon adopt the "whitelist" system for its internet. It means you will only be able to access web sites registered with the Chinese government. So by default, if you setup a site within or without of China, your site will be blocked, unless you go to the Chinese registration system. I could not imagine a Hungarian blogger or anyone else will be willing to go through all the hassle to just get visibility inside China. Information, despite its increasing value for this world, will be received much later or not at all for my fellow Chinese people.

This act, by far, can only be compared to the "Closed Door Policy" in Qing Dynasty, which leaded to the humiliation in recent history. In my life, I haven't been shocked by any political or economical incident like this.
