A lot of things are banned in China - I think they've got access to a censored version of Google.

This problem could only be resolved by creating a local presence, and this week we did so, by launching Google.cn, our website for the People's Republic of China. In order to do so, we have agreed to remove certain sensitive information from our search results. We know that many people are upset about this decision, and frankly, we understand their point of view. This wasn't an easy choice, but in the end, we believe the course of action we've chosen will prove to be the right one.

Roy, wingy and a few others worked over in China a few years ago, they rented a first class luxury rate flat for less than it costs to rent a terraced house here, and had better broadband than we have now, plus all the computer gear, digi cams etc dirt cheap.

He never had problems posting on accyweb at the time,

So perhaps he's upset them by emptying the shops?

Never mind China, it wasn't all that long ago you couldn't access AccyWeb from Accy library!
