| As reported, the Chinese government has moved to restrict the use
| of privacy-enhancing technologies and to surveill use of the Internet
| generally. Any country that does that ensures that in the global
| economy the only role they can play is that of coolie labor. How
| ironic for China to choose for itself such a role at this late date.
