【禁聞】內管微博 外堵穿牆 禁VPN

【新唐人2011年8月24日訊】為甚麼全世界只有在中國不能使用推特（Twitter）？而且臉書（facebook）、視頻網站youtube是非法網站？為甚麼中共認為VPN軟件涉及境外網站非法訪問，而與其他翻牆軟件一樣，被禁止販售。大陸媒體人向本臺記者表示：新聞自由會動搖中國統治者的根基，新聞封鎖是中共當局為了掩蓋罪行的手段。

《北京電視臺》報導，8月22號，中共政治局委員、北京市委書記到《新浪網》以及《優酷視頻網》調查研究，要求互聯網企業要營造網上輿論氛圍，利用好「微博」新技術，傳播社會主義核心價值。

同一天，「北京網路媒體協會」向網站和網友發出 “抵制謠言 文明微博” 的倡議書。

不僅如此，中國最大網上購物平臺《淘寶網》八月公告說：接有關部門通知，VPN軟件涉及境外網站非法訪問，與翻牆、破網類軟件同屬禁售品，《淘寶網》不允許出售相關商品。

很多人質疑為甚麼全世界只有中國覺得facebook（臉書）、youtube這些都是非法網站？為甚麼Twitter（推特）不能用？為甚麼政府害怕所謂的「謠言」，甚至網友說，現在往往是當局所謂的「謠言」，比電視，報紙新聞來得真實。

馬曉明（原陝西電視臺記者）： “為甚麼出謠言，主要就是因為言路被堵塞，新聞被封閉，真實的消息得不到傳播，所以會使謠言有傳播和產生的機會。如何抵制和消滅謠言，那就是及時的、迅速的、準確的傳播真實的消息。”

馬曉明還說，由於中共的新聞不真實，導致快速傳遞信息的「微薄」受到青睞。

馬曉明表示： “由於政府控制的媒體，政府本身進行新聞發佈，這些不真實的因素，所以人們現在對它發佈的新聞往往持懷疑態度。”

大陸網友野火認為，中共封網，使得很多民眾沒有辦法了解國際社會動盪和真正情況。因為如果全部信息都通透了，那就可能使中國接近民主化，而民主化的變革就會使統治者的根基發生動搖。

網友野火：只要是不利於穩定的，都把它先扼殺在搖籃裡面。這一兩年國際形勢，不像鄧小平、趙紫陽那個時候，現在像中東，還有很多原來一些專制的國家都開始紛紛傾覆了，所以他會聯想到現在的政體。所以他會把一些不利於統治的東西，都把它控制住。”

馬曉明認為，中共實行新聞封鎖的本身就為所謂的「謠言」產生了土壤。封鎖的行為侵犯了民眾基本的權利，應該受到法律制裁。

馬曉明： “實行新聞封鎖，是嚴重的違法行為。他為了掩蓋自己的罪行，為了維護自己的統治，他要防止人民知道真相。用他們自己的話講，是“穩定壓倒一切的”。穩定是甚麼？穩定是不讓人們知道真相，不讓人們反抗，不讓人們發表意見。”

不過，有人警告，利比亞的起義說明，新聞封鎖不管用，人民的自由意志不可壓制，自由的浪潮不可阻擋。

CCP against Freedom Wave

Why does China block Twitter, Facebook and YouTube,

and classify them as “illegal sites”?

Why does the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) consider

VPN as “unauthorized access to overseas websites,”

and prohibits its selling, along with other proxy software?

On August 22, Beijing TV reported that Central Committee

member and Secretary of Beijing Municipal CCP Committee

conducted some research on Sina.com and Youku.com.

He demanded that Internet businesses create

an online atmosphere of public opinion,

and fully utilize the micro-blogs

to spread the socialist core value system.

That same day, Beijing Association of Online Media called

on netizens to boycott microblogs and quash “rumors.”

Following authorities』 instructions this month,

China's largest online shopping platform, Taobao.com,

announced that VPN software and other proxy software

are now classified as banned products.

Because VPN accesses overseas websites without CCP』s

permission, its sale is now prohibited on Taobao web.

Many question why it』s only China』s authorities

that illegalize Facebook, YouTube and Twitter.

Why is the CCP afraid of the so-called "rumors"?

Comments from China』s netizens reveal

that these "rumors" are more truth than fiction.

Ma Xiaoming (ex-journalist, Shanxi TV):

“Why do these rumors occur?

It』s mainly because freedom of expression is illegal,

news are censored or blocked entirely,

and real information cannot be spread.

This encourages the rumors and their spreading.

How can one quash these rumors?

Spread real news timely and accurately.”

Ma Xiaoming thinks that because the CCP news are untrue,

this contributes to the increasing popularity of the microblogs.

Ma Xiaoming: “The CCP controls the media.

The Party itself makes these press releases.

These factors breed skepticism amongst the public

when it comes to official news reports.”

Netizen 『Bush Fire』 said that the CCP』s blocking of websites

causes people to lose information channels

which provide news concerning the international community.

If information is transparent in China, it will be closer

to democratization. However, this will shake CCP』s ruling.

Netizen 『Bush Fire』: “For everything that does not contribute

to stability, the CCP will “strangle it in its cradle.”

The international situation of recent years is not like that

of Deng Xiaoping or Zhao Ziyang』s times.

Now, like in the Middle East, many authoritarian countries

have been overturned. This will be linked to CCP』s regime.

Therefore, the CCP tightens its control over anything

that does not support its rule.”

Ma Xiaoming said that CCP』s censorship nurtures these

rumors – the blockade is a violation of basic human rights.

Such actions should be subject to legal sanctions.

Ma Xiaoming: “The information block is a serious offence.

In order to cover up their crimes and maintain their rule,

authorities want to prevent people from knowing the truth.

In their own words, "Stability overrides everything."

What is to be stabilized? Preventing people from knowing

the truth? From resisting? From expressing?”

The Middle East』s uprising proved that information

censoring is of no use, for freedom cannot be suppressed.

The wave of fighting for freedom cannot be stopped.
