Eric Schmidt: The Great Firewall of China will fall
http://j.mp/LZFxp7 (Foreign Policy)
"I believe that ultimately censorship fails," said Schmidt, when asked
about whether the Chinese government's censorship of the Internet can
be sustained. "China's the only government that's engaged in active,
dynamic censorship. They're not shy about it." When the Chinese
Internet censorship regime fails, the penetration of information
throughout China will also cause political and social liberalization
that will fundamentally change the nature of the Chinese government's
relationship to its citizenry, Schmidt believes.
