Censorship and Media In An Expanding Internet Population—Do You Feel Censored On The ‘Net?

Censorship and Media In An Expanding Internet Population—Do You Feel Censored On The ‘Net?

By Ryan Van Etten on 01/20/2010

Blocking sites = blocking progress. I’m American. It’s hard to imagine über-restricted Internet surfing. In the U.S. internet censorship does exist in workplaces, libraries, and schools but U.S. censorship is minimal compared to Chinese censorship. Censored sites in China include wikipedia.org, amnesty.org, nasa.gov, digg.com, bbc.co.uk, cnn.com, guardian.co.uk, facebook.com, flickr.com, tumblr.com, wordpress.com, youtube.com, and—WTF—even disney.com is censored.

On The Horizon For Google Music?

By Ryan Van Etten on 11/13/2009

If you often use Google to lookup artists then you’ve no doubt already seen the new Google Music Search that includes playable audio right in the search results. The streaming audio is served via iLike or Lala. Links to other streaming music sites are shown as well—namely Rhapsody, Pandora, Imeem, and Lala.
