Anonymus vs Big China Firewall
Over the past month, more than a hundred Chinese government sites were broken: some were simply defective, some personal personal data of administrators, emails, phone numbers leaked. And on March 30, a new " Anonymous China " account appeared on Twitter.
Something like this could be observed on most hacked sites:

The anonymus chose the Great Chinese Firewall, which is also sometimes referred to as the Golden Shield project (Kit. 金盾 工程, jīndùn gōngchéng), as the target of their attacks. The project itself is a system of servers on the Internet channel between providers and international information transfer networks that filters information. For example, the firewall repeatedly fell out of favor with the Wikipedia site, but such large-scale bans do not always happen, with many sites, China finds a common language and the sites themselves on their side filter the output data for China.
For example, the Chinese version of the search engine Yahoo! Diligently cleans “doubtful” information from the search results. Human rights activists were shocked by unexpectedly strict censorship from Yahoo! .. In relation to this search engine, they obtained impressive data: the share of "pro-government" information in the issue was 97%. Some of the queries (for example, “independence of Tibet”) led to the complete blocking of the possibility of the user using the search engine site.
Google, by the way, was also against censoring for a long time and didn’t give in to the Chinese authorities for quite a long time, but after a couple of bans from the Golden Shield, he quickly changed his mind and began filtering the issue too (they were afraid of losing so many users).
It was against this policy of censoring that AnonymousChina went. At the moment, they already have more than seven thousand followers, and this figure continues to increase. By the way, they say on Twitter that we ourselves, they say, are not Chinese and do not live in China. But rather poor English in their appeals suggests rather the opposite.
The Chinese government quite quickly sensed that it smells roasted, and issued an official response: “First, the Chinese Internet is open to everyone, and users can absolutely freely communicate on the network. China gave birth to 500 million Internet users and 300 million bloggers in a rather short period of time, which shows the openness of our Internet better than anything, ”said PRC representative Hong Lei, answering a question from CNN . “Secondly, the People's Republic of China censors the Internet space, consistent only with laws and nothing more. And thirdly, yes, we confirm that a lot of our sites have undergone hacker attacks. ”
In general, it is better not to hope for the final victory of Anonymus over the Firewall, but even if the government of the PRC somehow moves in its policy of censoring, it will be a big victory.
