China's Facebook Syndrome

hi everyone,
I posted an interesting article about Facebook and how censorship hinders access to China's online markets. Chinese social network can tap U.S. capital markets, but American social networks can't tap Chinese consumer markets. Does that sound fair?

  3. I found this article to be interesting as well. I don't think that the Chinese censorship on the internet is fair. It may have started with not allowing Chinese citzens to utilize Facebook, however, it will go on to other forgien sites as well. And it appears that it already has. I don't know what kind of effects it could have on trade, but I have a feeling that they will not be good.
