The Next Step
I read this in the Korea Herald yesterday, I think, then some blogs drew my attention to it today. What did I write before about small steps???? First block some English websites, then start restricting freedom of expression even more! A Korean college student drew parody pictures of some political candidates and put them on the internet. He was fined 1.5 million won (over $1200) for trying to influence the election. (I thought that was an allowable, and even desirable, thing in a free society!!) What's next for this government?! I may see a unified Korea yet; the great leader's name will be Kim Jong Il.

I am currently viewing your blog without a proxy. However, I still cannot access typepad blogs...

I can't access any of the blocked blogs. That's weird. There are a dozen reasons I can think of for this. Many of the reasons involve the ineptness of the government/ISPs.
