Censorship??

Censorship is one of the key topics in the world. In the book, "The Internet and Society: a reference handbook" it lists some cases about censorship in China. The Government creates cartoon figure, and make them appear to users' screen to stop people reading on the dangours website. The book discloses that "some of the censorship is for protecting citizen's safety, however some sensitive political words are blocked as well."
Yet, while censorship is being dicussed in the Western society, the Chinese Government has put it into practice. The ideologies from two cultures conflict. People doubt the policy of the Government. However, in my opinion, whether to use censorship and define the importance of censorship in a country should be considered with the situation of this perticular country.
The population in China is more than 12 hundred millions. The Government has to be much stronger than the other countries which have smaller populations. Thus, censorship relates to the population.

It is very difficult to define the policy clearly. The censorship does necessary in China. Otherwise, the country will be difficult to be led. However, according to the history of People's Republic of China, censorship should be controlled in a bound. During the 10 years Culture Revolution, people has been put away from the ancient China which is wealthy in knowledge and culture; people has been banded and keep away from connacting with the outside. The generation during that time is not familiar with the real Chinese culture at all. In this aspect, it is true that "the censorship destroyed our culture".

There are always advantages and disadvantages exist in one incident. The important thing is how to control it in order to use it efficiently.
