September 02, 2002: Google Blocked in China

I've been flooded with reports that Google has been blocked in China. "Lawrence" reports on Google's status in China the past few days, from personal experience.

If you're in China, you may still be able to access google.yahoo.com and BBCi's Google-based search engine. You can also download Peek-a-Booty, a peer-to-peer anti-filtering program that allows you to access the Web by proxying through users in non-blocked jurisdictions.
