Three of the circumvention tools — DynaWeb FreeGate, GPass, and FirePhoenix — used most widely to get around China’s Great Firewall are tracking and selling the individual web browsing histories of their users. Data about aggregate usage of users of the tools is published freely. You can see, for example, that the three sites most visited by users of these circumvention tools are live.com, google.com, and secretchina.com. Aggregate data like this is a terrific resource for those of us interested in researching circumvention tool usage, and not much of a privacy risk for the circumventing users if it is only stored (as well as displayed) in the aggregate.

“违背正确婚恋观和家庭伦理道德的内容”——这句话深深的刺痛了我,我的心在颤抖,我不知道我以后采用何种方式活下去。被歧视,被抛弃,被边缘化,不受尊重,这样的生活还有何意义,这样的社会怎能和谐。
我真希望自己是一名伊朗人,那样我就会因同性恋犯死罪,死了总比活着强;这样活着,真的生不如死!

中国对民主的理解是,政府为人民的利益奋斗。这是父母官的态度。这是所谓中国式的民主。西方社会的民主意味着选举领导人,要竞选,执政党能够被代替。这个观点他们并不认为是中国式的民主。人权也是一样。人权被中国领导层理解为政府关怀人民,政府给人民各种各样的爱护。而不是说,你有权力来挑战政府,来批评政府。

作者认为,今日中国,虽然还保留了奥维尔(George Orwell)《1984年》的若干成分,但它已经更像是赫胥黎(Aldous Huxley)笔下的《美妙的新世界》(Brave New World)。众所周知,《1984年》和《美妙的新世界》都是20世纪出现的反乌托邦、反极权主义的经典名著。但是这两本书所描绘的极权主义却分别属于两种不同的类型。《1984年》里的极权社会主要是建立在无处不在的监视控制和严厉的政治迫害之上的;《美妙的新世界》里的极权主义则主要是建立在满足人的物质欲望和娱乐享受之上的。瓦瑟斯托姆教授认为,从1989年之后,中共认真吸取了东欧共产国家垮台的教训,得出结论,要确保政权稳固,就必须发展更有活力的经济,给民众提供更丰富的物质享受和娱乐。

是的,今日的中共政权在处理国内外许多重大问题时表现得很灵活,故而被黎安友(Andrew Nathan)教授称之为“有弹性的威权主义”(Resilient Authoritarianism)。我要指出的是,中共政权的这种灵活性也是来自六四。六四屠杀彻底消解了中共政权的合法性,促成了中共政权由权力到暴力的转变。
