GEEK NEVER COOK

Well, the story began from 800 years ago, China is in Yuan Dynasty at that time. A brilliant dramatist named Wang Shifu wrote a drama Romance of West Chamber, Which is about two youth how to get married through the barricade of their family. The classic scene of this drama is the boy over the wall to meet the girl secretly, it is also the reason why the developer named the project as West Chamber Plan.

The goal of this project is let users can access Internet freely despite GFW and it really easy to use. It solves two problem which led by GFW: connection reset by peer and domain hijacking. The theory is from the paper Insertion, Evasion, and Denial of Service: Eluding Network Intrusion Detection by T. Ptacek etc..

Actually I have no idea of the theory, just glad to see someone use his skills against evil for the masses. With hard work of innumerable people like this, we create the civilization we have today.

I am glad to see that Google want quit China mainland, because google.cn is just shame but nothing. For the potential big market, Google forgot its Don’t be Evil. Although there is big possibility this decision is also led by money, at least it needn’t give in to the Chinese government.

I am a big fan of Google and at the same time I almost use all the product of Google, I cannot without Gmail and Reader for a day. Maybe after Google left China, the .com domain would be blocked and we cannot use Gmail and other product, it will be a disaster for Chinese university and scientist. For me, it force me to use Tor and other proxy tools, and maybe buy a VPN account. That’s quite not convenience, it make me realize we back to the Qing Dynasty, in that period, the rulers blocked China from the world.

Last year on this day, a man is executed in China.[wiki]

He is a murderer who killed 6 Shanghai police officers in police station. He is a hero who shined glory at last time of his short life.

Today is Thanks Giving Day in western world, I don’t know how many Chinese would remenber him, I know there should be some and I’am one of them.

I don’t belive violence could make a better world, but I hold strong belief that violence is a useful tool forces tyrants choose gentle reformers’ oppion. Yang Jia is the one makes tyrants know we Chinese also can fight back when we being humiliated, if there’s no justice we also can find our own justice.

There’s wall in China.

It seems like no Chinese know where the wall is, even  the existence of  the wall is some kind of secret in this country.  You can not see it, touch it, throw stone to it. And the wall does no effect to your daily life, how kind the wall is. Is it really true?

The wall is only for the curious ones. For the one who is asking for truth, knowledge and justice, the wall is brutal and merciless. When you want know some knowledge or info the BIG BROTHER forbid, it cast its evil magic let you face the high wall.

They want there is no curious people in China, they want no one ask why and how, they want every one sit down and enjoy their unfair fortune. However, nothing can tie down a freedom heart no matter how high the wall is. We have many ways to gladder the wall and dig some small tunnel in the wall. Can you see the Chinese users in the twitter and facebook, some of them are the hero who cross the wall.

Ah, I forgot to introduce the name of the wall. Please remember it, one day, it  is certain to write in the history book with other things which keep people  far away truth and wisdom for their creator’s evil purpose.

There’s wall in China, we call it Great Firewall.
