Dissident: Thought it strains belief, Chinese authorities have increased censorship of the Internet even more. Recent developments have expanded China’s notorious “Great Firewall,” already the world’s most complex attempt at strict control of online communications.
Last month, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) passed new legislation establishing new criminal sanctions for creating and spreading “false” information online. On November 2nd, the media reported a deal made between the CCP and a Los Angeles company to enforce this censorship globally. These efforts are just one of the many implemented in the past months by the CCP to silence political dissent.
It is not uncommon in China for online dissidents to be sentenced to jail or to be fined for creating and spreading “false” information about the CCP or for browsing banned websites. In fact, the practice has been going on for years. What’s different about the new law is that these earlier punishments were administrative, not criminal. Dissidents can now be convicted as criminals and for longer periods of time. To prevent these “criminals” from committing crimes, the law also gives more control to authorities to control the flow of online information. more here
