We apologise to viewers in some areas who may be experiencing technical difficulties
I discovered on Thursday evening that my blog is no longer accessible in China - or at least the small part of China where I live. Strangely, other Blogsome blogs do not appear to have this problem.
Now, some people might unfairly suggest that I have been blocked. But this cannot be true since I have it on good authority that Internet censorship does not exist in China. Since that is obviously true, the real cause must be technical difficulties. I know that relevant departments must very eager to solve these difficulties, and I think I have a solution. As many people have discovered, proxies seem to have a magical ability to solve certain problems of a technical nature. My idea is simple: those proxy people should get together with the relevant departments here, form a mutually beneficial joint venture, and install proxy software in all ISP servers - rather like Cisco, I suppose. A win-win solution.
But while I am waiting for this to happen, I suppose I will have to put up with a little inconvenience. Oh well, 塞翁失马。
Correction (24 June)
It seems that a great many Blogsome blogs are unavailable without a proxy here right now, though others have no problem. I have no idea why that might be.
Great blogs, hope the technical difficulties are solved. As with Deng’s mouse-hunting black cat/white cat, use whatever strategy you can to achieve the right result! Keep up the blogging, love the articles!!
