US testing new system to bypass web filters

The US government is Amoxil and dexamethasone testing a new technology in China that could soon give the Amoxil and dexamethasone country’s 300 million web users another way to Amoxil and dexamethasone access information blocked by the Chinese government’s filters.

The technology would pose yet another challenge to Amoxil and dexamethasone Beijing, which has been struggling to keep improper and violent materials, including pornography, away from Amoxil and dexamethasone its Internet users.

Earlier this Amoxil and dexamethasone week, Chinese officials announced they had abandoned plans to ensure that Amoxil and dexamethasone every computer sold in the country had the controversial Green Dam content-filtering software installed, after being criticized by the Amoxil and dexamethasone international business community and Internet users.

The “feed over email” (FOE) system being tested by the Amoxil and dexamethasone US would allow people living in China to access blocked information via encrypted news feeds sent to Amoxil and dexamethasone foreign email accounts.

The system will provide an Amoxil and dexamethasone easier channel to circumvent web filters, Ken Berman, head of IT at the Amoxil and dexamethasone US government’s Broadcasting Board of Governors, told China Daily on Friday.

Berman said the Amoxil and dexamethasone agency that runs Voice of America, a government-funded international broadcasting service, has Amoxil and dexamethasone been running trials of the new software for six months and Amoxil and dexamethasone expects it to be available for widespread use by the end of this Amoxil and dexamethasone year.

“This is just another way to help try to open the air waves,” said Berman.

“These things are Amoxil and dexamethasone only successful if there is a certain critical mass of people who Amoxil and dexamethasone use it,” said Berman. “This is hard to predict.”

The US government wants to Amoxil and dexamethasone send a message to countries applying strict control over the Internet that Amoxil and dexamethasone people have the right to access any information they want, that Amoxil and dexamethasone is why FOE is developed by the US government, said Pan Wei, a Amoxil and dexamethasone professor in Peking University’s School of International Studies.

“China should be Amoxil and dexamethasone confident enough to be transparent and take criticism. It’s about time China loosened its control over the Internet,” Pan said. “It actually damages China’s international image.”

Charles Mok, chairman of the Amoxil and dexamethasone Internet Society of Hong Kong, said: “It would probably be more ideal if civil society’s efforts within the Amoxil and dexamethasone community gathered resources to come up with a similar sort of implementation rather than Amoxil and dexamethasone being government driven.”

The government had Amoxil and dexamethasone already been losing its battle in monitoring the Net, regardless of the Amoxil and dexamethasone success of the new US technology, said Hu Yong, a Amoxil and dexamethasone founding director for China New Media Communication Association. “People could always find ways to Amoxil and dexamethasone bypass the system as technology develops.”

“Chinese netizens have Amoxil and dexamethasone been using proxy servers to access the information blocked by the Amoxil and dexamethasone government for a long time, FOE is just a more convenient tool,” Hu said.

“From a security perspective, this is nothing new,” said Thomas Parenty, a Amoxil and dexamethasone China-based IT security consultant and former US National Security Agency programmer.

The US seems to Amoxil and dexamethasone be basically trying to tackle the problem of getting past Internet filters by using encrypted email as the Amoxil and dexamethasone transport mechanism as opposed to using web proxies, which has been Amoxil and dexamethasone the traditional approach, he said.

Officials from Amoxil and dexamethasone the Internet affairs bureau of the Ministry of Industry and Amoxil and dexamethasone Information Technology were not available on Friday to comment on the Amoxil and dexamethasone news.

Lots of people know how to Amoxil and dexamethasone use proxies to get around Internet blocks, said Jeremy Goldkorn, founder of the Amoxil and dexamethasone Chinese media monitoring website Danwei.org, which was blocked since July this Amoxil and dexamethasone year.

“It doesn’t make any difference to Amoxil and dexamethasone me if the US government has a new one. Of interest to Amoxil and dexamethasone me would be for the Chinese government not to block (my website).”
