Another Reason to BoyCott China - Freedom of Speech!




China Squeezes PC Makers to install on all PCs a Government Required Web Filter That Would Censor 'Harmful' Internet Siteshttp://online.wsj.com/article/SB124440211524192081.html




BEIJING -- China plans to require that all personal computers sold in the country as of July 1 be shipped with software that blocks access to certain Web sites, a move that could give government censors unprecedented control over how Chinese users access the Internet.The government, which has told global PC makers of the requirement but has yet to announce it to the public, says the effort is aimed at protecting young people from "harmful" content. The primary target is pornography, says the main developer of the software, a company that has ties to China's security ministry and military. China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology didn't respond to requests for comment. REST OF THE STORY IS ON THE LINK ABOVE

Interesting that most of T. Boone's Wind Turbines are from a Danish Company, built in Vietnam and imported through Portland USA: Spain is also a major player in Wind Mill Turbines!

OK June 4 to July 4 - Don't buy anything made in China!

Let's do it one better... I got this email from my ex-father in law, his point was very simple.
To celebrate July 4 this year, stop buying anything made in China from June 4 to July 4.

A Boycott of Chinese Made Products for one month.

No Flags. No Heroes on the Battle field.
Just the simple act of putting back on the shelf
or the table or the floor if it was made in China when you are in any store.

Just don't buy it for ONE month.
If it has printed on it "Assembled or Made in China",
Check your ink cartridges... this might be a real sacrifice for you!
