Time blog falsely claims to be blocked

Being blocked by the Chinese internet filter systems is a kind of honorary award, the bloggers at Time Magazine seem to like.

That's what we have been. Blocked. Great Fire Wall-ed. Or Net nanny-ized. Or, as some Chinese netizens say in reference to their President's most famous slogan, "harmonized" (被和谐的), which has an authentically creepy Orwellian ring to it....or maybe it wounds more like "neuralized" from the Men in Black movie, which would make it more silly than creepy.

There is only one problem with that claim, say some of the comments: it is not true. I also have had no problems in getting to their website or weblog, I just did an entry myself on this weblog with quite a high level of sensitive words: it does not matter. Nanny takes a nap I guess.
