You are more beautiful than ever dear friend. Life, huh, who knew it could be so full of potential. My commnet has nothing to do with the Chinese government, I just wanted to tell you you are pretty and I like you. You are terribly smart and powerful in a kind package, that’s what I think anyway.

ofcourse! blogging would probley cease to exsist because of fear of imprisonment or death in some cases. sooner or later it would effect all the contries.

That makes me mad! I have some friends in China, who came here to SHSU this summer to study the American CJ program! If I were them, or if I were just another Chinese student, I would not care but I would post whatever came to my heart. One of my Japanese friends says that is why I will get arrested when I go to China. Haha. :)

You don’t need to have your name registered on your blog for the govt to figure out who you are. Most servers log the IP address of every connection, and that IP address can be traced to your ISP, who can tell who was using that IP address. So really, if I post a blog, ore even a comment, there is a good chance that it can be traced back to me.

The Chinese system just makes this quicker.

I would not be afraid to stand by what I said, under my own name. I am willing to stand up to what I say, and defend it. But, "bullmeister" hits a nail on the head: if my government required it, that would affect my attitude toward my government, and I would probably want to change my governing authorities.

:-0 We should never say something in hidden disquise that we would not want to come back before us to convict us. If we would not say it to one's face, we probably should not say it. ;-)

No, but it would change what I thought about my government.

Depends. In a country like the U.S., with its long-standing traditions of free discourse, I would use my blog as a form of political protest if I felt that the government were trying to regulate ideology.
