RE: The Blocks For This Coin Are Confirming So Slow That I Think They’re Being Sent Via The Post Office
I've never looked into how China censor their 'Internet'. Do they not just block most cross gateway SSL connections, and do packet inspection on unencrypted traffic?
Much, much more complicated than that. I've been in Hong Kong a few years ago and exchanged a few tweets with a friend who was traveling with me but staying at a different hotel. The tweets arrived 2 days after we left HK. In order to pull this out you gotta have a lot more than just packet inspection (huge pipelines, storage management, etc). It's not called "the Great Wall of Internet" for nothing.
Right, yeah I suppose they have internal censorship too, so can't even use the same SSL as we do! A different world indeed!
