"China"/"PRC" vs. "mainland China" for page titles

edit

Following the long discussion at Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (Chinese) regarding proper titling of Mainland China-related topics, polls for each single case has now been started here. Please come and join the discussion, and cast your vote. Thank you. — Instantnood 15:07, Apr 9, 2005 (UTC)

Merger

edit

Perhaps this article should be merged with Internet censorship in the People's Republic of China? The content is basically duplicated. Either that, or this article should be rewritten to focus more on the development of the Internet in China in general, rather than the censorship. -- ran (talk) 21:20, Jun 1, 2005 (UTC)

History

edit

I added some information about the first connection of China to the Internet. If somebody has the time I suggest adding a history section to this article.

Here is the source for the Beijing-Karlsruhe link that connected China with the Internet: http://www.fgks.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/src/pubzorn/How_China/index.html

How about confirming the actual date? i noticed this webpage: http://www.danwei.org/internet/china_media_timeline_danwei_wo.php and there was a few other pages that supported this date(or at least in this year) so i thought the actual date should be confirmed.

This info maybe should also be added to the Chinese language Wikipedia GuntramGraef 15:02, 8 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

The dates for the opening section should be checked. The introduction claims China was connected to the internet on Sept. 20th, but then goes on to claim the first email was sent three days prior on Sept. 17th. 166.94.128.10 (talk) 02:13, 4 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

Anybody can find the CNNIC survey data?

edit

I recall China Internet Network Information Center (CNNIC) reports the development of the Internet in China annually. But I don't know if they report in English or not.--Skyfiler 15:54, 19 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Added links to CNNIC reports.--Skyfiler 18:46, 22 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
What does the internet penetration represent.... I mean it seems important, I'm left with the assumption that it has something to do with the actually level of content available to most china users.... but it's an assumption. One that is dangerous and shouldn't be made. But if internet penetration is a measurement of content not being censored, information available to the average user, then should it' be more thoroughly discussed; not only in this article but in the main articles of other countries (example internet censorship in the United States. On a side note I see that Youtube isn't listed on china's notable website censor list... I'd like to know more about this.--Sparkygravity (talk) 15:41, 26 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Psiphon

edit

Psiphon[1] is a software project designed by University of Toronto's Citizen Lab under the direction of Professor Ronald Deibert, Director of the Citizen Lab. Psiphon is a circumvention technology that works through social networks of trust and is designed to help Internet users bypass content-filtering systems setup by governments, such as China, North Korea, Iran, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates and others.

"We're aiming at giving people access to sites like Wikipedia," a free, user-maintained online encyclopedia, and other information and news sources, Michael Hull, psiphon's lead engineer, told CBC News Online.[2]

Structure

edit

"The interconnection between these networks is a big concern of Internet users, since Internet traffic via the global Internet is quite slow. However, major Internet services providers are reluctant to aid rivals[citation needed]." - I think this part should be deleted. No citation, just an assumption. My guess is, that the global internet traffic is slow because China only has three entry-points (because they need to be monitored). In fact, it has nothing to do with the networks within China, as this line tries to suggest. 136.199.201.142 (talk) 13:56, 10 April 2010 (UTC)Reply
