Okay, so reading through my blog subscriptions in Google Reader I come across a Mint.com post about how China has a massive firewall that filters what their people can see on the internet. The reason for the news was that Google decided to stop providing censored search service and instead opened it up. That’s not a secret or anything, but….

I click the link in my Google Reader to open up the official post and it’s gone. All I get is the Mint.com MintLife home page and the previous entry is currently the latest. As of right now (11:14pm Thurs) you can see it on the RSS feed:

I think China put the kabosh on Mint.com or something. Who knows, this post may not be here that long either. If I go missing, somebody call Jack Bauer.

On a different, but related note, the political leaders in China need to learn that power should be used to serve others, not control them.
