The Chinese character "企" has multiple meanings. One is "to stand on tiptoe".[1] So "企鹅 (penguin)" means "standing goose".

Correct me if I'm wrong: Telegram has been blocked in China mainland. So if normal Chinese botnets want to DDOS Telegram, they will be blocked by GFW first. So how these botnets succeeded? Does that mean they are "special"?

Google didn't withdrawn. They stopped censorshipping sensitive keywords and moved their servers to Hong Kong. Then China blocked their sites. You can't withdraw from the Internet by simply move your servers. Bing censor sensitive keywords so China allows them to stay.

Related to Chinese game censorship:
1. A game developed by Taiwanese studio, Devotion, has been removed from Stream by its developers due to a hiding meme about Xi Jinping founded by Chinese gamers earlier this year.[1]
2. Still earlier this year, Chinese Overwatch players being instantly banned from the game for typing the words "Winnie the Pooh" in public chat.[2]

And you can't rate & review this app on Apple App Store.[0] I think only some apps made by Apple have this privilege.

Hi, checked the Android version Meta Meme app. One suggestion: split it into arm and x86 version for the the ffmpeg lib to reduce the apk size. Each of them is 9MB which is not a small number.

Opera Software is acquired by a group of Chinese companies,[1] and one of them is Qihoo 360, which has a lot of negative history.[2]

leavjenn | 10 years ago | on: Show HN: Arguman – Argument Analysis Platform
Great project.
A UI suggestion: how about make the list view in HN nested comment style? If an argument gets too much items (like this one: http://en.arguman.org/there-is-no-such-thing-as-global-warmi...), it's a little mess in tree view. The list view style is more clear, but you have to click each item to see the sub-item. How aout make them nested with indentations? So one can see all items in one place.

Cause China gov heard that the so-called dissidents were using Telegram.
For the iMessage, it is just for iPhone, Telegram is all-platform. And in China, iPhone is still an expensive smartphone. Android phone is used more widely.

The military is governed by CCP, not the conuntry.
"China's military said on Sunday it must be governed by the ruling Communist Party and not succumb to "liberal" voices who wish to challenge the party's control." [1]

The chinese sale page is here, I think it is official site (well, actually it says group-buying rather than sale, but maybe just sales gimmick): http://www.loongsonclub.com/gw/, it's 379 rmb. I don't know whether you guys in US or somewhere outside China get any transit companies that they can buy something for you in China, and then send it to you. Off topic, as a guy lived in China, I really can't understand why are you interested in something like that...
