Bloggers in China

Feb. 21 - The third in a series of articles in the Washington Post as to how the internet works - and hinders - freedom in China: Bloggers Who Pursue Change Confront Fear And Mistrust.

The irony in the final paragraph is outstanding.

Also pertinent is the article Free Software Takes Users Around Filters in the same issue.

1 Found two official looking *China* blogsites in Blogger and had some bug cleanup to do with Webroot Nothing to miss really so no links. Did you know about this Trojan service?? Build-to-order trojan horse service offers customized malware for $990 By Wolfgang Gruener Published Friday 24th February 2006 19:21 GMT http://www.tgdaily.com/2006/02/24/trojan_horse_authoring_service/print.html Glendale (CA) - Antivirus specialist Panda Software says it has discovered a "complex malware creation system" that allows individuals to purchase "made-to-measure" trojan horses for a flat fee of $990. The money buys not only the malware, but also a service that monitors the infection rate and provides code modifications, if the trojan is detected by antivirus software. No doubt they are likely to do business with some very heavy customers. Not good for one*s health. The server is already identified. Just how long they will last is questionable. Many spammers and info key loggers are being caught lately.. Some of the fines are enormous. TG
