Default Censorship

So I've been looking into censorship (mainly in china)
and I've found out some interesting/creepy ways in
which the citizens, publications, and authors are silenced.

Not sure if my source is outdated or not seeing as to how it was last updated 2 years ago, but I read how it's done on this site:

http://www.cecc.gov/pages/virtualAcad/exp/

as well as a few articles written by some journalists who've spent time over there.

The government tracks the online movements of the people in China with their Firewall and any page that isn't liked, is not accessible or at least not supposed to be.

Blogging not in pro to the government is a no no and can get you thrown in jail.

Publishing anything the government doesn't like is a no no as well. You can also be fined, banned, shutdown, thrown in jail. . .

Then I thought about how some of these threads get censored because Tass doesn't like them. . .XD

In a nutshell, its gay and I haven't found any good that can come of limiting freedom of expression.
