“The “Green Dam Bitch” – Netizens Spoof The Censorship Software”

The massively discussed “Green Dam – Youth Escort” Censorship Software is the hottest topic on Chinese Internet during this week.

Spoofing is a very classical Chinese Internet culture. Netizen absolutely won’t let the disgusting Green Dam off. Thus, the “Green Dam Bitch” has been created by netizens.

The “alpaca” in the pictures refers to the “Grass Mud Horse“, a very popular dirty pun on China Internet.

The “crab” logo in the pictures refers to “harmonize”, a term directly derived from President Hu Jintao’s regular exhortations for Chinese citizens to create a harmonious society. In spoken Chinese, “river crab” sounds very much like “harmony”, which in China’s cyberspace has become a synonym for censorship.

    The “netizens” are really speaking out in China. On the anti-Green dam website called issw365.org, over 10,400 netizens have left comments sharing their strong opinions and frustrations against Green Dam. http://www.newsy.com/videos/chinese_filter_a_no_go
