[Air-l] interesting article about net censorship in china

[jeremy hunsinger]

umm, if you really want to know.  that study entailed last week  
congressional testimony, which was probably the origin of the article.   
it also had a press release or two.  opennet is utoronto, harvard, and  
cambridge more or less.  if you want specific info, I can provide  
contacts as appropriate.
