cynagh0st writes "A Pew Internet & American Life Project report
indicates that of an overwhelming majority of Chinese people that
believed the Internet should be 'managed or controlled,' 85% want the
government to do this managing. This is resulting from surveys on
Internet use over the last seven years in China. 'The survey findings
discussed here, drawn from a broad-based sample of urban Chinese
Internet users and non-users alike, indicate a degree of comfort and
even approval of the notion that the government authorities should
control and manage the content available on the Internet.' The report
goes further into describing the divide in perspective between China
and Western Nations on the matter and discusses the PRC's
justifications for Internet control."
