(1) Eric E Schmidt and Jared Cohen, The Future of Internet Freedom. We have the technology to defeat censorship. Do we have t6he will? New York Times, Mar 12, 2014 (op-ed).
I read it carefully, but the authors--Mr Schmidt is is the executive chairman of Google and Mr Cohen, the director of Google Ideas--says nothing about the technology.
"The company began encrypting traffic between its data centers last year, after The Washington Post and the Guardian, relying on documents provided by Snowden, reported on the massive extent of Internet spying by the National Security Agency and its allies. Microsoft and Yahoo soon followed with similar initiatives.
"Firefox, Safari and Google’s own Chrome browser support automatic encryption, but older generations of Microsoft’s Internet Explorer — still popular in China and much of the world — do not.
Note: "And there’s no telling on a given day what the government is choosing to block. 'In China a lot of things are like this,' said JIANG Tao 蒋涛, founder of CSDN, a Chinese software developer community. 'You don’t know what you can do, what you can’t do. No one tells you.'"
