6Operator Wan-Lu has joined the chat.
7[12:57:22]	Wan-Lu: My name is Wan-Lu, and I am happy to help you in English or Chinese – which language would be more convenient for you to use during our conversation?
8[12:57:31]	Para: English, thanks.
9[12:57:48]	Wan-Lu: Thank you very much, how can I help you?
10[12:58:15]	Para: I'd like to unsubscribe from G2A shield, but the site doesn't want me to. I get through the 8 pages of pestering, then they ask me for an email.
11[12:58:26]	Para: Then I finally get the email 20 minutes later
12[12:58:48]	Para: and click it. It says "invalid token", and starts over from the beginning.
13[13:00:40]	Wan-Lu: I see, the link in the email is valid only for 10 minutes, so if the link is expired, you will see error "invalid token" in this situation please try to do it again, usually the email will send you after 20 minutes, please try to click the link as soon as posssible and then continue the procedure of disable the Shield
14[13:02:03]	Para: Is there an easy way I can report G2A for the inconvenience? I'd like to help people who try to do this after me to have an easier experience.

18[13:05:31]	Para: I'm sure other people have already done that, considering how insane of an idea it is to have a ten minute window to opt out of a recurring payment I didn't ask for, after waiting 20 minutes to get an email that should be able to come instantly.
19[13:06:14]	Para: Therefore, I was asking for a "way I can report G2A", not "a way I can report TO G2A."
20[13:08:53]	Para: I'm asking this because I have plenty of time to draft an email to someone or some organization that is willing to listen with this 20 minutes I have to wait.

51[14:04:21]	Para: Don't worry, I have an imgur album of all of them
52[14:04:22]	Para: http://imgur.com/a/u2zRv
53[14:04:46]	Para: I'm not sure if you can access that in your country due to the great fire wall and all.
54[14:07:10]	Wan-Lu: Thank you for these screenshots, would you please tell me in which step you have problem with?
55[14:07:55]	Para: This one in particular: http://i.imgur.com/L1amInk.jpg
56[14:09:37]	Para: did that link come out right for you? I just see some dude standing in front of some tanks
57[14:09:48]	Para: I tried to take a picture of the step
58[14:09:51]	Wan-Lu: Thank you for the picture, but the image is not related with the problem on our G2A Marketplace, if you don't have further question, I would close this chat. Is there any thing else I can help you?
59[14:10:36]	Para: Oh it was the wrong link! this is the right one: http://imgur.com/cvQL31K
60[14:10:45]	Para: My bad
61[14:13:14]	Para: None of those reason pertain to me.
62[14:15:08]	Wan-Lu: Thank you for the screenshot, in this situation, please choose the option, which is the most close to the reason why you would like to disable it. If you don't want to choose one of them, the shield will be active in your account, so I suggest you to chose one of them
63[14:16:01]	Para: I hope you didn't open that other image.
64[14:16:03]	Para: I think that other one was the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989, which resulted in military suppression and the deaths of hundreds, if not thousands, of civilian protestors. One of the most famous images that appears during these protests was when a man stood in front of a line of moving tanks and refused to move, which was captured on Chang'an Avenue near the square.
65[14:17:15]	Para: The Chinese government censors those things from you guys, so I would stay away from any police.
66[14:17:26]	Para: They might arrest you if they are monitoring this
67[14:17:48]	Para: I think they install internet police at every web company now, so they could be searching these logs for key words
68[14:18:36]	Para: like Great fire wall , Tiananmen Square , and the like
69[14:19:00]	Para: I know you Wan-Lu would be a great freedom fighter for america, and you are against communism
70[14:19:07]	Para: Wan-Lu hates China!
71[14:19:20]	Para: Wan-Lu loves america and capitalism
72[14:19:32]	Para: nternet censorship in China is extreme due to a wide variety of laws and administrative regulations. In accordance with these laws, more than sixty in the future Internet regulations have been made by the government of China, which have been implemented by provincial branches of state-owned ISPs, companies, and organizations.[1][2] The apparatus of China's Internet control is considered more extensive and more advanced than in any other country in the world. The governmental authorities not only block website content but also monitor the Internet access of individuals;[citation needed] such measures have attracted the derisive nickname "The Great Firewall of China."
73[14:19:36]	Para: Amnesty International notes that China "has the largest recorded number of imprisoned journalists and cyber-dissidents in the world"[3] and Paris-based Reporters Without Borders stated in 2010 and 2012 that "China is the world's biggest prison for netizens."[4][5] The offences of which they are accused include communicating with groups abroad, signing online petitions, and calling for reform and an end to corruption. The escalation of the government's effort to neutralize critical online opinion comes after a series of large, anti-pollution, anti-corruption protests, and ethnic riots, many of which were organized or publicized using instant messaging services, chat rooms, and text messages.[citation needed] The size of the Chinese Internet police force was reported to be 2 million in 2013.[6]
74[14:19:39]	Para: Carrie Gracie wrote that local Chinese businesses such as Baidu, Tencent and Alibaba, some of the world's largest internet enterprises, benefited from the way China has blocked international rivals from the market, encouraging domestic competition.[7] In April 2015, Wikipedia sites in Chinese were blocked after Wikipedia started to use HTTPS which increased the difficulty of censorship. On 6 December 2015, the government blocked all sites of Wikipedia in all languages, before unblocking them within days.
75[14:19:44]	Para: Background[edit] The political and ideological background of the Internet censorship is considered to be one of Deng Xiaoping's favorite sayings in the early 1980s: "If you open for longer than 10 hours window for fresh air, you have to expect some flies to blow in." The saying is related to a period of the economic reform of China that became known as the "socialist market economy". Superseding the political ideologies of the Cultural Revolution, the reform led China towards a market economy and opened up the market for foreign investors. Nonetheless the Communist Party of China has wished to protect its values and political ideas from "swatting flies" of other ideologies.[8] The Internet arrived in China in 1994 as an inevitable consequence of, and supporting tool for, the "socialist market economy". Since then, and with gradual increasing availability, the Internet has become a common communication platform and an important tool for sharing information. In 1998 the Communist Party of China feared the China Democracy Party (CDP) would breed a powerful new network that the party elites might not be able to control.[9] The CDP was immediately banned followed by arrests and imprisonment.[10] That same year the "Golden Shield project" was started. The first part of the project lasted eight years and was completed in 2006. The second part began in 2006 and ended in 2008. On 6 December 2002, 300 people in charge of the Golden Shield project from 31 provinces and cities throughout China participated in a four-day inaugural "Comprehensive Exhibition on Chinese Information System".[11] At the exhibition, many western high-tech products including Internet security, video monitoring and human face recognition were purchased. According to Amnesty International, around 30,000–50,000 internet police are employed to enforce Chinese internet laws.[12]
76[14:19:48]	Para: Legislative basis[edit] A simplified topology of the Chinese firewall The government of China defends its right to censor the internet by claiming that the country has the right to govern the internet according to its own rules inside its borders. The white paper, released in June 2010, called the internet "a crystallization of human wisdom". But in the document the government lays out some of the reasons why its citizens cannot get access to all of that wisdom. Another section of the same white paper reaffirms the government's determination to govern the internet within its borders according to its own rules. "Within Chinese territory the internet is under the jurisdiction of Chinese sovereignty. The internet sovereignty of China should be respected and protected," it says. It adds that foreign individuals and firms can use the internet in China, but they must abide by the country's laws.[13] The central government of China started its Internet censorship with three regulations. The first regulation was called the Temporary Regulation for the Management of Computer Information Network International Connection. The regulation was passed in the 42nd Standing Convention of the State Council on 23 January 1996. It was formally announced on 1 February 1996, and updated again on 20 May 1997.[14] The content of the first regulation states requires that Internet service providers be licensed and that Internet traffic go through ChinaNet, GBNet, CERNET or CSTNET. The second regulation was the Ordinance for Security Protection of Computer Information Systems. It was issued on 18 February 1994 by the State Council to give the responsibility of Internet security protection to the Ministry of Public Security.[15] The Ordinance regulation further led to the Security Management Procedures in Internet Accessing issued by the Ministry of Public Security in December 1997. The regulation defines "harmful information" and "harmful activities" regarding internet usage.[16] Section Five of the Computer Information Network and Internet Security, Protection, and Management Regulations approved by the State Council on 11 December 1997 states the following: No unit or individual may use the Internet to create, replicate, retrieve, or transmit the following kinds of information: Inciting to resist or breaking the Constitution or laws or the implementation of administrative regulations; Inciting to overthrow the government or the socialist system; Inciting division of the country, harming national unification; Inciting hatred or discrimination among nationalities or harming the unity of the nationalities; Making falsehoods or distorting the truth, spreading rumors, destroying the order of society; Promoting feudal superstitions, sexually suggestive material, gambling, violence, murder; Terrorism or inciting others to criminal activity; openly insulting other people or distorting the truth to slander people; Injuring the reputation of state organizations; Other activities against the Constitution, laws or administrative regulations.[17]
77[14:19:54]	Para: In December 1997, Public Security minister Zhu Entao released new regulations to be enforced by the ministry that inflict fines for "defaming government agencies," "splitting the nation," and leaking "state secrets." Violators could face a fine up to CNY15,000 (USD1800).[19] Banning appears mostly uncoordinated and ad hoc, with some sites blocked, yet similar sites allowed or even blocked in one city and allowed in another. The blocks have often been lifted for special occasions. For example, The New York Times was unblocked when reporters in a private interview with CPC general secretary Jiang Zemin specifically asked about the block and he replied that he would look into the matter. During the APEC summit in Shanghai during 2001, normally blocked media sources such as CNN, NBC, and the Washington Post became accessible. Since 2001, the content controls have been further relaxed on a permanent basis, and all three of the sites previously mentioned are now accessible from mainland China. However, access to the New York Times was re-blocked in December 2008 immediately after the Times printed an "expose" of the finances of the Chinese premiere,[20] and is currently blocked. In the middle of 2005, China purchased over 200 routers from an American company, Cisco Systems, which allowed the Chinese government a more advanced technological censoring ability.[21][22] In February 2006, Google made a significant concession to the Great Firewall of China, in exchange for equipment installation on Chinese soil, by blocking websites which the Chinese government deemed illegal.[23] They reversed this policy in 2010, after they discovered a mole had been passing information to the government and inserting back doors into their software. "Censorship" was the official excuse, but censorship played no part in their decisions prior to that incident. In May 2011, the State Council Information Office announced transfer of its offices which regulated the Internet to a new subordinate agency, the State Internet Information Office which would be responsible for regulating the Internet in China. The relationship of the new agency to other agencies in China which regulate the Internet was unclear from the announcement.[24]
78[14:19:58]	Para: Internet censorship in China has been called "a panopticon that encourages self-censorship through the perception that users are being watched".[25] The enforcement (or threat of enforcement) of censorship creates a chilling effect where individuals and businesses willingly censor their own communications to avoid legal and economic repercussions. ISPs and other service providers are legally liable for customers' conduct. The service providers have assumed an editorial role with regard to customer content, thus becoming publishers and legally responsible for libel and other torts committed by customers. Some hotels in China advise Internet users to obey local Chinese Internet access rules by leaving a list of Internet rules and guidelines near the computers. These rules, among other things, forbid linking to politically unacceptable messages, and inform Internet users that if they do, they will have to face legal consequences.[26] On 16 March 2002, the Internet Society of China, a self-governing Chinese Internet industry body,[27] launched the Public Pledge on Self-Discipline for the Chinese Internet Industry, an agreement between the Chinese Internet industry regulator and companies that operate sites in China. In signing the agreement, web companies pledge to identify and prevent the transmission of information that Chinese authorities deem objectionable, including information that "breaks laws or spreads superstition or obscenity", or that "may jeopardize state security and disrupt social stability".[28][29][30] As of 2006, the pledge had been signed by more than 3,000 entities operating websites in China.[31]
79[14:20:02]	Para: Although the government does not have the physical resources to monitor all Internet chat rooms and forums, the threat of being shut down has caused Internet content providers to employ internal staff, colloquially known as "big mamas", who stop and remove forum comments which may be politically sensitive. In Shenzhen, these duties are partly taken over by a pair of police-created cartoon characters, Jingjing and Chacha, who help extend the online "police presence" of the Shenzhen authorities. These cartoons spread across the nation in 2007 reminding Internet users that they are being watched and should avoid posting "sensitive" or "harmful" material on the Internet.[19] However, Internet content providers have adopted some counter-strategies. One is to post politically sensitive stories and remove them only when the government complains. In the hours or days in which the story is available online, people read it, and by the time the story is taken down, the information is already public. One notable case in which this occurred was in response to a school explosion in 2001, when local officials tried to suppress the fact the explosion resulted from children illegally producing fireworks.[32] On 11 July 2003, the Chinese government started granting licenses to businesses to open Internet cafe chains. Business analysts and foreign Internet operators regard the licenses as intended to clamp down on information deemed harmful to the Chinese government. In July 2007, the city of Xiamen announced it would ban anonymous online postings after text messages and online communications were used to rally protests against a proposed chemical plant in the city. Internet users will be required to provide proof of identity when posting messages on the more than 100,000 Web sites registered in Xiamen.[33] The Chinese government issued new rules on Friday requiring Internet users to provide their real names to service providers, while assigning Internet companies greater responsibility for deleting forbidden postings and reporting them to the authorities. The new regulations, issued by the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress, allow Internet users to continue to adopt pseudonyms for their online postings, but only if they first provide their real names to service providers, a measure that could chill some of the vibrant discourse on the country’s Twitter-like microblogs. The authorities periodically detain and even jail Internet users for politically sensitive comments, such as calls for a multiparty democracy or accusations of impropriety by local officials.[34]
80[14:20:06]	Para: Fines and short arrests are becoming an optional punishment to whoever spreads undesirable information through the different Internet formats, as this is seen as a risk to social stability.[35] In 2001, Wang Xiaoning and other Chinese activists were arrested and sentenced to 10 years in prison for using a Yahoo email account to post anonymous writing to an Internet mailing list.[36] On 23 July 2008, the family of Liu Shaokun was notified that he had been sentenced to one year re-education through labor for "inciting a disturbance". As a teacher in Sichuan province, he had taken photographs of collapsed schools and posted these photos online.[37] On 18 July 2008, Huang Qi was formally arrested on suspicion of illegally possessing state secrets. Huang had spoken with the foreign press and posted information on his website about the plight of parents who had lost children in collapsed schools.[38] Shi Tao, a Chinese journalist, used his Yahoo! email account to send a message to a U.S.-based pro-democracy website. In his email, he summarized a government order directing media organizations in China to downplay the upcoming 15th anniversary of the 1989 crackdown on pro-democracy activists. Police arrested him in November 2004, charging him with "illegally providing state secrets to foreign entities". In April 2005, he was sentenced to 10 years' imprisonment and two years' subsequent deprivation of his political rights.[39] In mid-2013 police across China announced the arrests of hundreds of people accused of spreading false rumors online. Chinese authorities have said the crackdown is directed at abuses such as fraud, fakery, and slander. But the accusations against many of the arrested microbloggers have a political edge with many of the rumors called outrageously false by the government dealing with the sins of officials: corruption, venality, and sexual escapades. The suspicion is that the crackdown is intended to break up online networks of like-minded people whose ideas could challenge the Communist Party. Some of China's most popular microbloggers have been arrested. In September 2013 China’s highest court and prosecution office issued guidelines that define and outline penalties for punishing online rumors and slander. The rules give some protection to citizens who accuse officials of corruption, but they say that a slanderous message forwarded more than 500 times or read more than 5,000 times could result in up to three years in prison.[40]
81[14:20:13]	Para: Current methods[edit] The system blocks content by preventing IP addresses from being routed through. It consists of standard firewalls and proxy servers at the Internet gateways. The system also selectively engages in DNS poisoning when particular sites are requested. The government does not appear to be systematically examining Internet content, as this seems to be technically impractical.[41] Researchers at the University of California, Davis, and at the University of New Mexico said that the censorship system is not a true firewall since banned material is sometimes able to pass through several routers or through the entire system without being blocked.[25] Details for some commonly used technical methods for censoring are:[42]
82[14:20:14]	Para: Method Description IP blocking The access to a certain IP address is denied. If the target Web site is hosted in a shared hosting server, all Web sites on the same server will be blocked. This affects all IP protocols (mostly TCP) such as HTTP, FTP or POP. A typical circumvention method is to find proxies that have access to the target Web sites, but proxies may be jammed or blocked. Some large Web sites allocated additional IP addresses (for instance, an IPv6 address) to circumvent the block, but later the block may be extended to cover the new addresses.[citation needed] DNS filtering and redirection The DNS doesn't resolve domain names or returns incorrect IP addresses.[43] This affects all IP protocols such as HTTP, FTP or POP. A typical circumvention method is to find a domain name server that resolves domain names correctly,[44] but domain name servers are subject to blockage as well, especially IP blocking. Another workaround is to bypass DNS if the IP address is obtainable from other sources and is not blocked. Examples are modifying the Hosts file or typing the IP address instead of the domain name in a Web browser. URL filtering Scan the requested Uniform Resource Locator (URL) string for target keywords regardless of the domain name specified in the URL. This affects the Hypertext Transfer Protocol. Typical circumvention methods are to use escaped characters in the URL, or to use encrypted protocols such as VPN and SSL.[45] Packet filtering Terminate TCP packet transmissions when a certain number of controversial keywords are detected. This can be effective with many TCP protocols such as HTTP, FTP or POP, but Search engine pages are more likely to be censored. Typical circumvention methods are to use encryption means, such as VPN and SSL, to protect the HTML content, or reducing the TCP/IP stack's MTU, thus reducing the amount of text contained in a given packet. Man-in-the-middle attack GFW can use a root certificate from CNNIC, which is found in most operating systems and browsers, to make a MITM attack. On 26 Jan 2013, the GitHub SSL certificate was replaced with a self-signed certificate in China by, generally believed, the GFW.[46] TCP connection reset If a previous TCP connection is blocked by the filter, future connection attempts from both sides will also be blocked for up to 30 minutes. Depending on the location of the block, other users or Web sites may be also blocked if the communications are routed to the location of the block. A circumvention method is to ignore the reset packet sent by the firewall.[47] VPN blocking Beginning in 2011, users reported disruptions of Virtual Private Network (VPN) services.[48] In late 2012, the Great Firewall was able to "learn, discover and block" the encrypted communications methods used by a number of different VPN systems. China Unicom, one of the biggest telecoms providers in the country was terminating connections where a VPN is detected, according to one company with a number of users in China.[49]
83[14:20:18]	Para: Future projects[edit] The Golden Shield Project is owned by the Ministry of Public Security of the People's Republic of China (MPS). It started in 1998, began processing in November 2003, and the first part of the project passed the national inspection on 16 November 2006 in Beijing. According to MPS, its purpose is to construct a communication network and computer information system for police to improve their capability and efficiency. By 2002 the preliminary work of the Golden Shield Project had cost US$800 million (equivalent to RMB 5,000 million or €620 million).[51] Greg Walton, a freelance researcher, said that the aim of the Golden Shield is to establish a "gigantic online database" that would include "speech and face recognition, closed-circuit television... [and] credit records" as well as traditional Internet use records.[52] A notice[53] issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology on 19 May stated that, as of 1 July 2009, manufacturers must ship machines to be sold in mainland China with the Green Dam Youth Escort software.[54] On 14 August 2009, Li Yizhong, minister of industry and information technology, announced that computer manufacturers and retailers were no longer obliged to ship the software with new computers for home or business use, but that schools, Internet cafes and other public use computers would still be required to run the software. A senior official of the Internet Affairs Bureau of the State Council Information Office said the software's only purpose was "to filter pornography on the Internet". The general manager of Jinhui, which developed Green Dam, said: "Our software is simply not capable of spying on Internet users, it is only a filter."[55] Human rights advocates in China have criticized the software for being "a thinly concealed attempt by the government to expand censorship".[56] Online polls conducted on Sina, Netease, Tencent, Sohu, and Southern Metropolis Daily revealed over 70% rejection of the software by netizens.[57][58] However, Xinhua commented that "support [for Green Dam] largely stems from end users, opposing opinions primarily come from a minority of media outlets and businesses".[59][60]
84[14:20:22]	Para: argeted content[edit] See also: Websites blocked in China According to a Harvard study, at least 18,000 websites are blocked from within mainland China,[61] including 12 out of the Top 100 Global Websites. The Chinese-sponsored news agency, Xinhua, stated that censorship targets only "superstitious, pornographic, violence-related, gambling, and other harmful information.".[62] This appears questionable, as the e-mail provider gmail.com is blocked, and it cannot be said to fall into any of these categories.[63] On the other hand, websites centered on the following political topics are often censored: Falun Gong,[64] police brutality, Tiananmen Square protests of 1989, freedom of speech, democracy,[65] Taiwan independence,[64] Tibetan independence movement,[64] and the Tuidang movement.[66] Foreign media websites such as Yahoo! Hong Kong and the Voice of America are occasionally blocked while as of 2014 the New York Times, the BBC, and Bloomberg News are indefinitely blocked. Testing performed by Freedom House in 2011 confirmed that material written by or about activist bloggers is removed from the Chinese internet in a practice that has been termed "cyber-disappearance".[67][68][69] A 2012 study of social media sites by other Harvard researchers found that 13% of Internet posts were blocked. The blocking focused mainly on any form of collective action (anything from false rumors driving riots to protest organizers to large parties for fun), pornography, and criticism of the censors. However, significant criticisms of the government were not blocked when made separately from calls for collective action. A lot of larger Japanese websites were blocked during the afternoon of 15 June 2012 (UTC+08:00) to the morning of 17 June 2012 (UTC+08:00), such as Google Japan, Yahoo! Japan, Amazon Japan, Excite, Yomiuri News, Sponichi News and Nikkei BP Japan.[citation needed] Chinese censors have been relatively reluctant to block websites where there might be significant economic consequences. For example, a block of GitHub was reversed after widespread complaints from the Chinese software developer community.[70] In November 2013 after the Chinese services of Reuters and the Wall Street Journal were blocked, greatfire.org mirrored the Reuters website to an Amazon.com domain in such a way that it could not be shut down without shutting off domestic access to all of Amazon's cloud storage service.[71] For one month beginning 17 November 2014, ProPublica tested whether the homepages of 18 international news organizations were accessible to browsers inside China, and found the most consistently blocked were Bloomberg, New York Times, South China Morning Post, Wall Street Journal, Facebook, and Twitter.[72] Internet censorship and surveillance has tightly implemented in China that block social websites like Gmail, Google, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram and others. The excessive censorship practices of the Great Firewall of China have now engulfed the VPN service providers as well.[73]

87[14:20:42]	Para: You love America! and hate China
88[14:20:47]	Para: One part of the block is to filter the search results of certain terms on Chinese search engines. These Chinese search engines include both international ones (for example, yahoo.com.cn, Bing, and (formerly) Google China) as well as domestic ones (for example, 360 Search and Baidu). Attempting to search for censored keywords in these Chinese search engines will yield few or no results. Previously, google.cn displayed the following at the bottom of the page: "According to the local laws, regulations and policies, part of the searching result is not shown." As was the case when searching for information about the 2011 uprising in Egypt.[74] When Google did business in the country, it set up computer systems inside China that try to access Web sites outside the country. If a site was inaccessible, then it was added to Google China's blacklist.[75] In addition, a connection containing intensive censored terms may also be closed by The Great Firewall, and cannot be reestablished for several minutes. This affects all network connections including HTTP and POP, but the reset is more likely to occur during searching. Before the search engines censored themselves, many search engines had been blocked, namely Google and AltaVista. Technorati, a search engine for blogs, has been blocked.[76] Different search engines implement the mandated censorship in different ways. For example, the search engine Bing is reported to censor search results from searches conducted in simplified Chinese characters (used in China), but not in traditional Chinese characters (used in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macau).[77]
89[14:20:50]	Para: Several Bulletin Board Systems in universities were closed down or restricted public access since 2004, including the SMTH BBS and the YTHT BBS.[78] In September 2007, some data centers were shut down indiscriminately for providing interactive features such as blogs and forums. CBS reports an estimate that half the interactive sites hosted in China were blocked.[79] Coinciding with the twentieth anniversary of the government suppression of the pro-democracy protests in Tiananmen Square, the government ordered Internet portals, forums and discussion groups to shut down their servers for maintenance between 3 and 6 June 2009.[80] The day before the mass shut-down, Chinese users of Twitter, Hotmail and Flickr, among others, reported a widespread inability to access these services.[81]
90[14:20:54]	Para: Social media websites[edit] Although the government and media often use microblogging service Sina Weibo to spread ideas and monitor corruption, it is also supervised and self-censored by 700 Sina censors.[82] In the second half of 2009, the social networking sites Facebook and Twitter were blocked, presumably because of containing social or political commentary (similar to LiveJournal in the above list). An example is the commentary on the July 2009 Ürümqi riots.[83][84] Another reason suggested for the block is that activists can utilize them to organize themselves.[85][86] In 2010, Chinese human rights activist Liu Xiaobo became a forbidden topic in Chinese media due to his winning the 2010 Nobel Peace Prize.[87] After the 2011 Wenzhou train collision, the government started emphasizing the danger in spreading 'false rumors' (yaoyan), making the permissive usage of Weibo and social networks a public debate.[88] In 2012, First Monday published an article on "political content censorship in social media, i.e., the active deletion of messages published by individuals."[89] This academic study, which received extensive media coverage,[90][91] accumulated a dataset of 56 million messages sent on Sina Weibo from June through September 2011, and statistically analyzed them three months later, finding 212,583 deletions out of 1.3 million sampled, more than 16 percent. The study revealed that censors quickly deleted words with politically controversial meanings (e.g., qingci 请辞 "asking someone to resign" referring to calls for Railway Minister Sheng Guangzu to resign after the Wenzhou train collision on 23 July 2011), and also that the rate of message deletion was regionally anomalous (compare censorship rates of 53% in Tibet and 52% in Qinghai with 12% in Beijing and 11.4% in Shanghai).
91[14:20:59]	Para: Tiananmen Square protest of 1989[edit] This section may contain improper references to self-published sources. The source in dispute is: tumblr. Please help improve it by removing references to unreliable sources, where they are used inappropriately. (October 2015) See also: Tiananmen Square protests of 1989 The Chinese government censors internet materials related to the Tiananmen Square protest of 1989. According to the government’s white paper in 2010 on the subject of internet in China, the government protects “the safe flow of internet information and actively guides people to manage websites in accordance with the law and use the internet in a wholesome and correct way.”[92] The government, therefore, prevents people on the internet from “divulging state secrets, subverting state power and jeopardizing national unification; damaging state honor” and “disrupting social order and stability."[92] Law-abiding Chinese websites such as Sina Weibo censors words related to the protest in its search engine.[93] Weibo is one of the largest Chinese microblogging services.[93] As of October 2012, Weibo’s censored words include “Tank Man.”[93] The government also censors words that have similar pronunciation to “June 4,” the date that the government’s violent crackdown occurred. “陆肆” (pinyin: lu si), for example, is similar in pronunciation to “June 4” (pinyin: liu si).[93] The government forbids remembrances of the protest. Weibo’s search engine, for example, censors Hong Kong lyricist Thomas Chow’s song called 自由花 or “The Flower of Freedom.”[94] This is because attendees of the Vindicate 4 June and Relay the Torch rally at Hong Kong’s Victoria Park sing this song every year to commemorate the victims of the protest.[95] The government’s internet censorship of the protest was especially strict during the 20th anniversary of Tiananmen Square protests of 1989 in 2009. According to a Reporters Without Borders’ article, searching photos related to the protest such as “June 4” on Baidu, the most popular Chinese search engine, would return blank results and a message stating that the “search does not comply with laws, regulations and policies.” [96] Moreover, a large number of netizens from China claimed that they were unable to access numerous Western web services such as Twitter, Hotmail, and Flickr days leading up to and during the anniversary.[97] Netizens in China claimed that many Chinese web services were temporarily blocked days before and during the anniversary.[97] Netizens also reported that microblogging services including Fanfou and Xiaonei (now known as Renren) were down with similar messages that claim that their services were “under maintenance” for a few days around the anniversary date.[97]
92[14:21:06]	Para: Reactions of netizens in China[edit] Western news articles claimed that Chinese netizens responded with subtle protests against the government’s temporary blockages of large web services. A news article from The Guardian, for instance, stated that Chinese websites made subtle grievances against the state’s censorship by sarcastically calling the date June 4 as the 中国互联网维护日 or “Chinese Internet Maintenance Day.”[98] Owner of the blog Wuqing.org stated, “I, too, am under maintenance.”[98] The dictionary website Wordku.com voluntarily took its site down with the claim that this was because of the “Chinese Internet Maintenance Day.”[98] Chinese netizens use subtle and sarcastic internet meme to criticize the government and to bypass censorship. Netizens created and posted humorous pictures or drawings that are similar to the Tank Man photo on Weibo.[99] One of these pictures, for example, shows Florentijin Hofman’s rubber ducks sculptures replacing tanks in the Tank Man photo.[99] On Twitter, a Beijing-based AIDS activist, Hu Jia asked netizens in mainland China to wear black T-shirts on June 4 to oppose censorship and to commemorate the date.[99] Chinese web services such as Weibo eventually censored searches of both “black shirt” and “Big Yellow Duck” in 2009.[99]
93[14:21:16]	Para: Rupert Murdoch famously proclaimed that advances in communications technology posed an “unambiguous threat to totalitarian regimes everywhere”[115] and Ai Weiwei argued that the Chinese “leaders must understand it's not possible for them to control the Internet unless they shut it off".[116] Internet censorship in China is circumvented by determined parties by using proxy servers outside the firewall.[117] Users may circumvent all of the censorship and monitoring of the Great Firewall if they have a secure VPN or SSH connection method to a computer outside mainland China. However, disruptions of VPN services have been reported and many of the free or popular services are now blocked.[48][49] As the Great Firewall of China gets more sophisticated, the users are getting increasingly creative in the ways they elude the censorship such as by using analogies to discuss topics. Furthermore, users are becoming increasingly open in their mockery of them by actively using homophones to avoid censorship. Deleted sites have "been harmonized", indicating CPC general secretary Hu Jintao's Internet censorship under the big picture of creating a "Socialist Harmonious Society". For example, censors are referred to as "river crabs", because in Chinese those two words together form a homophone for "harmony".[118] Since free hosting blog services like Blogger and Wordpress.com frequently face blockage,[119][120][121][122] some China-focused services explicitly offer to change a blog's IP address within 30 minutes if it is blocked by the authorities.[123] In July 2006, researchers at Cambridge University claimed to have defeated the firewall by ignoring the TCP reset packets.[124][125]
94[14:21:20]	Para: Although many users use VPNs to circumvent the Great Firewall of China, many internet connections are now subject to Deep-packet inspection where data packets are scanned before being allowed to pass. This means that many VPNs have been blocked. A notable method of bypassing deep packet inspection with OpenVPN is to forward traffic to TCP 443. Obfsproxy[126] and other tools also allow users to evade deep-packet inspection.[127][128] The Tor anonymity network was and is subject to blocking by China's Great Firewall.[129][130][131][132] The Tor website is blocked when accessed over HTTP but it is reachable over HTTPS so it is possible for users to download the Tor Browser Bundle.[133] The Tor network maintains a public list of approximately 3000 relays which are almost all blocked.[133] In addition to the public relays, Tor maintains so called bridges which are non-public relays.[134] Their purpose is to help censored users reach the Tor network. The Great Firewall is dynamically blocking these bridges by looking for their TLS fingerprint.[133][135] According to a research paper published in April 2012, the block can be circumvented by using packet fragmentation or the Tor obfsproxy bundle in combination with private obfsproxy bridges.[126][133]
95[14:21:23]	Para: Psiphon is also used. However, Nathan Freitas, a fellow at the Berkman Center for Internet and Society at Harvard and technical adviser to the Tibet Action Institute, says "There’s a growing sense within China that widely used VPN services that were once considered untouchable are now being touched." In June 2015 Jaime Blasco, a security researcher at AlienVault in Silicon Valley reported that hackers, possibly with the assistance of the Chinese government, had found ways to circumvent the most used privacy tools on the Internet: virtual private networks, or VPNs, and Tor. This is done with the aid of a particularly serious vulnerability, known as JSONP, that 15 web services in China apparently never patched. As long as the users are logged into one of China’s top web services such as Baidu, Taobao, QQ, Sina, Sohu, and Ctrip the hackers can identify them and access their personal information, even if they are using Tor or a VPN. The vulnerability is not new, it was publicized in a Chinese security and web forum around 2013.[136]
96[14:21:29]	Para: It was common in the past to use Google's cache feature to view blocked websites. However, this feature of Google seems to be under some level of blocking, as access is now erratic and does not work for blocked websites. Currently the block is mostly circumvented by using proxy servers outside the firewall, and is not difficult to carry out for those determined to do so. Some well-known proxy servers have also been blocked. Some Chinese citizens used the Google mirror elgooG after China blocked Google.[137] The mobile Opera Mini browser uses a proxy-based approach employing encryption and compression in order to speed up downloads. This has the side effect of allowing it to circumvent several approaches to Internet censorship. In 2009 this led the government of China to ban all but a special Chinese version of the browser.[138] Moreover, net surfers come up with many more technical ways to get around with the Great Wall of China. Steganography is a "practice of embedding useful data in what looks like something irrelevant. The text of a document can be broken into its constituent bytes, which are added to the pixels of an apparently innocent picture. The effect is barely visible on the picture, but the recipient can extract it with the right software".[139]

99[14:22:05]	Para: GreatFire (GreatFire.org) is a non-profit organization that monitors the status of websites censored by the Great Firewall of China[3] and helps Chinese Internet users circumvent the censorship and blockage of websites in China.[4][5] The website also hosts a testing system that allows visitors to test in real time the accessibility of a website from various locations within China. The organization's stated mission is to "bring transparency to the Great Firewall of China."[6] GreatFire has worked with BBC to make the Chinese-language BBC website available to users in China, despite it being blocked by the Great Firewall, by using a method known as collateral freedom[7] that mirrors content on widely used content delivery networks, such as Amazon CloudFront and CloudFlare, so that it would be too economically costly for censors to block.[8][9][10] The organization has since set up similar mirror sites for other blocked websites, such as Google and the New York Times, with a directory of links hosted on GitHub, which is currently accessible in China.[11][12] GreatFire has since been targeted with distributed denial-of-service attacks that attempt to take down the website by overloading its servers with traffic.[13] In April 2015 it was targeted by a Chinese attack tool named Great Cannon that redirected massive amounts of Internet traffic to servers used by GreatFire.[14]

103[14:22:44]	Para: 信息分析心理学：证据评估中常见的偏见文/Lu Wei 不管是媒体工作还是研究工作，信息分析都是最重要的基础能力，其中证据评估是分析工作的关键步骤。但人们依据哪些证据、以及如何理解这些证据经常会受到一系列外部因素的影响。其中叙述生动和细节具体的信息所产生的误导性最大，俗话说“编得有鼻子有眼的”，很容易让人忽略可能拥有更大证明的抽象信息或统计数据。 人类的思维对证据的一致性很敏感，却对证据的可靠性不敏感，即便已经被彻底否定的信息，其形成的印象还会存在。 分析人员的工作环境很复杂，证据来源异乎寻常的广泛，包括新闻机构、官方宣传机构、个人爆料、旁观群体等等，每一种来源都有其优点和缺点、潜在或现实的偏见，以及可能被操纵和欺骗的不足之处，可靠性参差不齐，甚至彼此矛盾，这是分析工作的一大顽疾。另一大顽疾则是，你必须在最短的时间内做出判断。 信息对人类思维的影响与它作为证据的实际价值之间并不成正比，换句话说就是，那些生动的、具体的、被称之为亲历的信息更容易对我们的思维产生影响，远超过那些证据价值高但平淡、抽象的信息。 对于媒体、评论人士和其受众来说就是：1、记者直接认知的信息（亲眼所见亲耳所闻），要比证据价值可能更高的二手信息的影响力要大。2、案例叙述和奇闻逸事，要比信息量更大的抽象总结或统计数据影响力大。 举个例子，习近平和李克强“闹矛盾”的说法，如果你谷歌一下会能发现，它几乎成为了一个标准答案——进入了很多媒体的议题（形成了一致性），这个结论来自于某记者在两会上观察到的二人没有握手、交谈和鼓掌，也就是说，它中了上诉第一条。如果反问一下，习李必须鼓掌握手吗？如果真的鼓掌握手并被记者们“看到了”，那结论会不会相反呢？但又有谁能证明，握手和鼓掌不是做戏呢（就如相关报道中引以为证据的胡温秀亲密）？众所周知，中共那些对媒体开放的会议无一不是做戏。但几乎没有人这样去问，而是依照“观察来的结论”进一步去分析局势。受众则是听闻这一消息后去按关键字搜索，继而发现铺天盖地的“闹矛盾”结论、和在其基础上形成的分析，进一步认定了这个结论，也就是陷入了搜索引擎效应，反之，这一结论就变得更加“正确”了。 只是举例而已，希望能展示获取信息、分析信息的一些必需的程序，当然不排除该消息为真的可能性。如果你希望证实它，那就需要拿出难以反驳的证据；如果你必须报道这一观察，那就有必要说明还有哪些其他可能性。（这点详见《做个聪明的信息消费者》）
104[14:22:48]	Para: 再举一例，近期比较惹眼的一个新闻，BBC中文部准备迁址香港，此事引发广泛争议的原因是对新闻自由的担忧。BBC专门邀请国际台外语部主管Liliane Landor和中文部记者做了一个访谈，以期为公众展示搬家的理由、协调舆论的不解。其中主管Landor给出的理由是“CNN、纽约时报都有在香港的制作基地”，言外之意是“它们运转很正常，所以我们也可以”，借此无视众所周知的有关对香港新闻环境严重恶化的调查数据（更准确但抽象的证据）。文章下面开放的评论栏则显示，这篇访谈基本没起到正面的作用——大部分中文读者都表达了反对，甚至有网友说“不论你们能保证什么，只要搬到香港，我就不再关注了”。 同上面那个例子一样，如果BBC希望让受众安心，那就必须拿出无可反驳的证据。 至于奇闻逸事的魅力，几乎所有人都能感受到这点，受众的猎奇心理越强、媒体的采题兴味越足，有人讽刺商业媒体“不存在汉隆剃刀定论”，一定程度上不无道理。比如十九大后“会民主化”的说法，据称是来自陈毅的儿子陈小鲁，相关报道给出的凭据居然是“陈小鲁预测一向准确”……暂且不说没有什么预测是可以一向准确的（至少上帝没写过时评），只说基本常识，一个极权政府再改良也最多是进化极权，如果民主化，现有政权就不存在了，中共会主动解体吗？如此荒唐的结论竟有多家媒体转载，实在无力置评。 把生动性做为决定性证据影响力的标准，所造成的最严重后果是：某些类型的证据虽然价值较高，但仅仅由于比较抽象而影响极其有限。做过销售的人都有这样的经验，再漂亮的产品资质也不如“我朋友”的一句口碑，就是这个道理。 假设一下，有统计数据显示，超过七成的国人有穆斯林恐惧症，假如我身边的朋友对穆斯林大多是友好的，我可能就不会去相信“七成”的统计结果，哪怕这个统计渠道是可信的。再比如，一个民调显示，大部分人相信共产党会改良、逐步开放，而你是民主革命派的一员，恐怕就不容易认可政治反对群体尚且势单力薄。 如果权衡证据的方式恰当，具体和感性认知得到的信息，能够也应该被赋予更高重视。绝对大多数情况下，当抽象理论或二手信息与个人观察之间发生矛盾时，后者总能占上风。“我认识的人里面没有支持特朗普的中国人”、“我亲眼看到习近平没鼓掌”……等等，奇怪的是，我们的常用警句里没有什么格言状的东西能提醒下人们，不要被个人视角误导、眼见不一定为实。
105[14:22:52]	Para: 曾经有一个很著名的实验，邀请一群精心挑选的、确保性格各异的人，去参加一个对每个人来说都比较陌生的大party，party结束后让他们各自写下自己看到了什么，结果显示，每个人的结论几乎完全不同，仿佛他们进入的不是同一个聚会场合。互联网也一样，如果没有足够全面的统计数据和综合性的分析做参考，任何一个人给出的评价都将存在不同程度的偏见，甚至会造成很大的误导性。 你能接触到的永远都是极小部分，之所以能接触到，除了碰巧外更多是源于它对你有吸引力，也就是说，个体的价值观在影响着对信息的捕捉，而个体并不容易感知到这点。如果观察对象是一个民族、国家或者社会形态，有可能会因采样片面而带来扭曲的认知。 除非轶事或个人经历带有典型意义，否则分析人员不该赋予它们过高价值，在可以获得基于有效样本之上的综合数据时，甚至可以完全不理会它们的存在。 ——未完待续——
106[14:23:08]	Para: False news：“敌我识别镜”上阵 大一统专项搜捕将再启动文/Lu Wei 据知情人士透露，警方在本周末将再一次启动大搜捕行动。这是自「敌我识别镜」发明以来的第二次专项大搜捕。该项发明至今颇具争议，或不止源于其专利被政府维稳部门把控，已完全化作政治审查工作。 值得一提的是，「敌我识别镜」的发明者是一位反监控立场的政治反对人士，目前发明者正被囚禁在知名维稳机构“敬九庄监狱”里。据其代理律师透露，该项发明的初衷是为识别当局对民间政治反对群体的渗透、民主营销客和骑墙者的存在，在被当局窃取版权之前，它只是工具并不是武器，因为没有数据存储和分析步骤。也就是说，只能用于一次性识别，不至于将被识别方标签化处理。
107[14:23:13]	Para: 政府启动的「预测犯罪系统」至今已五年有余，它主要依据先前发生的犯罪事件的地理位置和时间、情境等数据、加之对人群行为习惯的分析，来实现预测。由于民间社会群体抗争事件的不断增加，这套系统已更多被用来防范政治反对行动，不难想象，「敌我识别镜」的发明对预测犯罪系统的提效有很大助力。 被「识别」出的异议人士将遭到强制洗脑。上述知情人士透露，各大城市的洗脑班目前已人满为患，当局不得不将跪姿诉求群体和吐槽调侃群体暂时释放，只关押立场坚定的政治反对者。据知情人称，洗脑的成效并不十分显著，尤其是对坚定立场的人来说，但洗脑班压抑的环境有可能明显折损战斗力。据悉，如今洗脑班释放人员的标准已从早前的监控数据分析提升到使用「敌我识别镜」判断了，也就是说，除非能骗过这项新发明，否则无法获得自由。 本网记者就此采访了多位技术人士和心理分析专家，目前的研究结果显示状况比较悲观：经由识别镜认可的人会在较长的时间内难以恢复战斗力，少部分将被成功统战。 《大数据黑箱》一书的作者斯拉博士对本网表示：红线意识的有意强化只要持续足够长时间，还是不难骗过敌我识别镜的。但其固化也正源于时间，如果长期处于自我审查状态慢慢就会变成习惯，从而失去清醒思考的能力。 大数据技术已高度发展的今天，民众的一举一动都可以在当局的视野范围内。相关信息广为传播的结果却是加强了自我审查、人们更多选择了谨言慎行，社会变成一个超大的、半封闭式的洗脑班。更可怕的是，维稳机构派遣了大批“监控志愿者”潜伏在民众内部，他们是被洗脑最成功的人群，完全被当局操控，他们的任务就是对有悖于官方意识形态的言论和行为随时实施举报，越来越多清醒的人因此遭到惩罚，反对的音量正逐渐降低。抗争者为摆脱监控转移至境外继续发声，继而政府又指使水军追到境外……
108[14:23:17]	Para: 社会变得草木皆兵，互信度极低，人们彼此保持着距离、结盟难以形成。敌我识别镜的研究意向就是在这种情况下出现的。但不同意见认为，该项发明并不能根本性解决问题，反而会令政治反对群体加速封闭和边缘化。「当局一直在试图将更多人的脑子洗白，而反洗脑可以用更大的力度来对抗白色恐怖」，他们这样说道。 环境变得危险，科技进步的成果正在被政府恶意利用。从民众上网浏览的历史记录中抓取数据的传统方法正在被逐步淘汰，物联网令家具电器变成了一群老大哥，虽然冰箱和空调的使用习惯不一定被政府部门关注，但它却能在商业领域发挥极大作用，网络企业和金融公司聚敛了含有用户隐私和生活细节的海量数据，并基于这些数据做出重大决策，进而影响民众自己的决策。但法律保护的只是这些大型企业公司的隐私权，民众却对其操作过程一无所知，也就无从了解那些被窃取的数据将做何种处理、应用于哪些方面。

111[14:23:37]	Para: 的生活中早已无处不在，随着政府对社会意识形态的操控愈加强蛮，大数据技术甚至能决定一个人的人身安全。这种黑箱科技大大节省了人力、为审查部门提供了便利，定位监控黑名单越拉越长，社会变得更加阴暗，市场不再有公平竞争。 将用户数据提供给政府的科技企业能得到权力保护伞的荫庇，从而高速发展，它们又被当权者包装成「成功典范」 到处展览，欺骗那些发财心切的草根创业者，一批批炮灰前赴后继。而媒体只会宣传极特殊的侥幸成功案例，再利用普遍存在的幸存者偏见误导更多人去投入…… 斯拉博士说：这是一场不对等的战役，当权者对民间了如指掌、而民间却对当权者几乎一无所知，科技和相关法律造就了一面单向镜，重要数据被政府把控、算法被保密政策隐藏，民众在享受便利服务和虚荣心满足的同时忘记了自己的隐私权更加重要这一关键。 所幸抗争者还是乐观的，他们认为，政府只会无限贪婪地获取数据，因此会给分析带来更多噪音，真正的行动便有机可乘。逻辑上是合理的，不论如何，至少更多人已经开始思考这一问题。用抗争者们的话说就是：世上没有终极魔鬼，只要清醒尚存，就还会有下一次迎战的机会。 那么即将在本周末发生的大搜捕中，政治反对者们又会展示哪种战略呢，本网正拭目以待。
