China Digital Times verifies a long list of banned keywords on Sina Weibo’s search function that combine “occupy” (占领) with a place name inside China: "provincial capitals, economically developed regions, and few symbolic local areas." Here are some of the keywords that contain the names of the capitals of Chinese provinces (in fact, all provincial capitals except Hefei of Anhui province and Guiyang of Guizhou province are on the list):

I never expected OWS to grow into China, but Im sure Banks there are just as corrupt as everywhere else.

How far do you all feel we are from this? The other night I posted a thread showing that the city of Phoenix had shut down power to the area where OWS protesters were as well as disabling wi-fi routers that the city owned in the same area. Nobody said boo about it but it is a sign that the government in this country is willing to go to totalitarian extremes.
