Great Chinese firewall. Griffith D.

Imagine that you are in the world without the Internet. There is nowhere to upload a photo, no one to share a funny picture with, nowhere to quickly get the necessary information. It seems that today this is almost impossible, but sometimes this is the result of the only solution and several pressing the button.

The Internet began as an island of freedom, developed by enthusiasts, but since then they have learned to manage both states and large corporations. The phrase “Internet remembers everything” has gained a second meaning - the content became controlled, the illusion of anonymity disappeared, and any careless message can create a lot of difficulties to the author. The book talks about how China was the first in the world to learn how to manage the Internet and how other countries adopted its experience.
