I'm sure we're all aware that the Chinese authorities are keen to ensure that the internet isn't used for illicit purposes and that they employ an army of censors to ensure that it isn't, but should they be stopping me from "befriending" their citizens on Myspace, as seems to be the case?  Or is it Myspace who are doing it?
At first I assumed it was just some technical glitch but decided to experiment by adding Japanese users that were on the same page and that was no problem at all.

Mmmm,

Anybody got any ideas what exactly is going on, or am I just imagining things?

That is all.

Yes, Comrade Artist, you are imagining things. Just roll over & go back to sleep...

as far as i know, the chinese myspace is a little behind on the times technologically. their captchas are still only 4 characters and messages/requests skip the "message sent" screen and go straight back to their profile. i think (?) shit still gets to them, but it's all weird, yes.
