LMAO that's hilarious, China already blocked Google with their firewall.

Not surprising considering they banned nvidia from selling non-consumer chips to China, so the Chinese adapted and just rented the hardware.

Always a good idea to ban backwards conservative countries run by dictators from accessing technology, so this is a good thing. China is insanely racist, and anti-LGBT

You could say the same thing about quite a few people in the States, you know.

People, not censorship-prone dictatorships. There is a difference.

I get where your comment is coming from but please do not compare oppressive dictators who "disappear" citizens on a whim without any repercussions to what we have here in the States, it's dishonest

Please stop doing this. China ranks behind Russia in terms of Press Freedoms so that's really saying something is it not

There are plenty of people in my country who say and try to do things just as bad. Not to the scale of China, but do not for a second tell me that those same sentiments do not exist on this side of the Pacific.
