Google.cn being blocked by China’s government

Google’s China news can’t stop at the moment. Since Google’s controversial decision to launch Google.cn with results being filter, news are being pop up day after day.

If this news is true, this might be a big crush between Google and China Goverment.

Tests on a Shanghai-based trace-route server, located at http://www.linkwan.com/vr2/, indicated that the site was being blocked at the government-operated backbone server. The analysis from the trace route said ‘IP packets are being lost past network CHINANET backbone network at hop 4.’

The same message is displayed when the test is run on websites that are blocked by the government, such as the BBC’s news website. A trace route could not be conducted from Beijing, although attempts to load the site in an internet cafe resulted in ‘time out’ errors.
