When the Chinese authorities tease the world with Internet freedom



When the Chinese authorities tease the world with Internet freedom
That is almost unbelievable. Today, the Chinese authorities have just released a white paper about the situation of the Internet in China. And, believe it or not, they have seriously written a chapter about the freedom of expression. I had to read it twice to realize it was not a fake.

Here is an abstract:

Chinese citizens fully enjoy freedom of speech on the Internet. The Constitution of the People's Republic of China confers on Chinese citizens the right to free speech. With their right to freedom of speech on the Internet protected by the law, they can voice their opinions in various ways on the Internet. Vigorous online ideas exchange is a major characteristic of China's Internet development, and the huge quantity of BBS posts and blog articles is far beyond that of any other country.


Waouh !!!! Can you believe that? When you think about the number of Chinese citizens that have been condemned and jailed (and still) for posting opinions on their blogs, you hardly believe that this government can write such a propaganda.
