internet - Late fallout of the 'crackdown' on weblogs

I was interviewed earlier today by 'Asia Media' and noted that the US media had not yet discovered that the perceived 'crackdown' on weblogs in China is much more limited than was suggested before. Also at the American Media Center is missing the latest assesments and sticks to the earlier story, that proved to be a rather simplified interpretation of reality.
Weblogs hosted outside China and those hosted at weblog services that have registered themselves do not have to do so themselves and that would cover most of the over one million weblogs in China. The problem has now shifted to those hosting services, who have to apply a filtering system, cause a wholly different discussion.
