[Lead-in] 1. China is shutting down information in cyberspace leaving its citizens in the dark about what's been happening in Tibet. Kristie Lu Stout puts the government censorship to the test.
[Story] 2. As Beijing fights to end Tibetan protests, it's also battling to control the flow of images and information to the millions of Internet users inside China. Go to Google in China, search "free Tibet" and you'll see a page of search results, but click on one of the links, and you'll get this: one big error message. Such measures aren't unusual. China often presses the censor button, but a US-based group that monitors Chinese digital media says this time, things seem different:
[Xiao Qiang/ Berkeley China Internet Project] "The scale of the control at the national gateway level and inside China is far more intense than anything I have seen before."
3. Beijing has built something of a "great Firewall of China" - a complex system of monitoring and filtering of sensitive keywords. But China's "great Firewall" is not perfect. Creative Internet users sidestep the censors by among other things, misspelling words that have been filtered. For example, a web site may not allow you to post a comment with "Da Lai," the Chinese words for the Dalai Lama, but type in the letters "d-l" and you get information about the Dali Lama.
4. China's chat rooms, which are subject to censorship, meanwhile are busy, hosting some reaction to the unrest. There was no way to tell if this site was being monitored but one participant writes: I'm 100% supportive of the government¡¯s oppression of the riot! But also on the same site, this comment: "the thing that angers me most is that the party is blocking out information again on this, it's helplessly dumb." China, working to restrict access on the information superhighway while some users try to work around the roadblocks.
