Beijing, more scrutiny is being placed on China’s Web-filtering
practices. In May, China’s technology minister, Wan Gang, told Reuters
China he would ‘guarantee as much [access] as possible,’ defending Web
limitations as necessary to protect the country’s citizens. Truly

and how others have found ways around it.”
