Just how much influence does the US government actually have over the Internet and regulation of it, these days? Not much, I would have thought.<p>But I think it's great that in theory, we could cut China off from the rest of the world, information wise, which is probably what their sour grapes intimates.<p>Fuck living in a world where China has any influence over what happens on the Internet in any way except inside their own borders.<p>I think they're just a bit sore their "asymmetrical warfare"  has this weakness - any state of Total War will result in no Internet for them from which to launch attacks.
