IAOC,
I'm trying to understand what is political speech in China. The
Geopriv WG deals with protecting users' location privacy. The policies
of more than one country have come up in geopriv meetings in very
derogatory terms. There have been very derogatory comments made by
people about the US's wiretap policy. Unless someone can point me at
specifics of what is or is not OK, I would find this very concerning.
Anything we think is a speculation, the ways of governments and
hotels have their own logic that may not make sense to technical people.
As for restrictions on topics that border technical and political sphere,
there are different restrictions in different countries.
I propose an experiment, lets have a meeting if it gets shut down
we will never return to China.
Sounds good.
Cullen, you are looking for clear boundaries, but you're not going to
get them. As in many countries, what is tolerated depends on time,
place, the particular people involved (on both sides), the weather, and
external factors such as whether there was an accidental gaffe from
Obama the day before. The best thing to do is to depend on guidance
from the people who know the subtleties of the situation best.
