Yahoo Goes Political To Appease China
In Taiwan protests are continuing. Following the arrest of former President Chen Shui bian, accused of dubious corruption allegations, on Thursday I wrote here that Taiwan's democracy is being highjacked by the KMT, attempting to appease China.
A student is pictured flashing a sign which reads a Cage of Freedom and a Woman holds up a sign reading "Unfair Justice" outside the detention center where Chen Shi bian, is being detained in Tucheng, Taipei County. Chen calls himself a political prisoner.
Has Yahoo gone political, siding with China unification surrogates? Yahoo this week denied and restricted user names with Taiwan in them saying, "Taiwan is in its list of illegal characters. Huh ?
Has Yahoo attempted to appease the KMT in suppressing the use of the name Taiwan to placate President Ma Ying jeoy pro China government along with his friends in PRC ?
