Facebook and Freedom
In China, most people cannot use Facebook, Youtube and Twitter. Some people have said, "You don’t have freedom." I want to say that there is no relationship between freedom and using these social media, I don’t know the details about business between social media and the Chinese government. Everyone people should hear the story about Mr. Snowden, all your personal information is being collected by all these social media which that are only controlled by U.S. The What is most dangerous is that there is a lot of rumours to asking people to be against the government and this information is always listed on the first page which was designed by Facebook or Youtube. All the Chinese don’t want that to happend because we are not controlled occupied by the U.S and we can say no to these products if these foreign products have political motives. The most important is that we have micro-blogs QQ/Tencent, Wechat, Renren, Youku and so on, and the number of people who used Tencent and Qechat in china are much larger than the people who want to use Facebook and Twitter.
I disagree with your point of view, but in any case, above is a correction of your English. I would agree with Karl that is has much more to do with money, especially as China's new government is currently trying to promote their own Silicon Valley tech startup world with their own versions of Western companies like Amazon (Alibaba) or Youtube (Youku), because these wouldn't be as successful if Amazon and Youtube could be accessed in China without VPN. As for the political side of things, if the blocking of these Western websites in China were done by popular vote it would be entirely legitimate, but the situation is not like this: it is the Chinese government, not the people, who has the final say in the matter.
