Oh, the new Great Wall

Again, and again, the blogger is blocked by the Great Fire Wall, a new Great Wall the Chinese dictator built on the internet.

I don't know when the block will cease, if ever, or whether it will. As a result, tor is needed to view the blog, even myself. What is the funny?

It's not a new innovation, since the first emperor of China used the very method to protect his empire, more than 2000 years ago, even though it has been proved to be useless.

As the world is more and more liquid, the solid wall appears less and less secure. In Holling's opinion, the "Command and Control" undermines the resilience of the system, and sooner or later, an avalanche will come.

Let's seat ourselves, and wait.
