Is Carniola forbidden in China?
You may have heard yesterday that the Chinese government wants to “purify” the Internet, which is to say block access to more sites than they already do. This story has the details. It also mentions the fact that China employs some 30,000 to 40,000 Internet police (!) to maintain the so-called “Great Firewall of China.”
This site allows you to test a domain and see if it’s censored in China or not. I ran a few Slovenian sites through it and these were my results:
| Domain | What it is | Status |
| www.carniola.org | You’re looking at it | BLOCKED |
| www.delo.si | Leading Slovenian newspaper | ALLOWED |
| www.rtvslo.si | National Public Broadcaster | ALLOWED |
| www.vecer.si | Maribor-based newspaper | BLOCKED (???) |
| www.mladina.si | Alternative weekly magazine | ALLOWED |
| www.najdi.si | Slovenian search engine | ALLOWED |
| www.natalijaverboten.com | Slovenia’s favorite superstar | BLOCKED |
| www.jonas.si | Popular Slovenian blogger/TV personality | ALLOWED |
| dextersweblog.blogspot.com | Blogger who actively supports Tibet | ALLOWED (???) |
| www.sigov.si | Official Slovenian Government page | ALLOWED |
| www.amnesty.si | Slovenian chapter of Amnesty International | BLOCKED |
Feel free to post your results in the comments! The test page is here.
