該雜誌編輯主力多是英國人。英國是出産莎士比亞的國家。而莎士比亞以文筆老辣、話中有話、一語雙關或多關、具有摧毀力的反諷著稱。《經濟學人》這個標題，就明顯展示出莎士比亞式的老辣和具有摧毀力的反諷。即使是翻譯成中文，其老辣和反諷的力道也沒有多少減損，讓懂行、內行的讀者讀了不禁莞爾而笑。 ! g4 E& g! U, D6 k6 q, j$ a7 H% Gtvb now,tvbnow,bttvbTVBNOW 含有熱門話題，最新最快電視，軟體，遊戲，電影，動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。5 x4 F- {2 o% j% l( X! |- U( A
該雜誌在這裡的意思顯然是説：當年中國當局作出遮罩推特的決定，就是因為擔心總部設在美國、不受中國執政黨共産黨宣傳部門控制的推特會打破當局的資訊封鎖；推特遭遇遮罩，也就是遭遇了失敗；但推特的失敗，給中國國內研發的微網志帶來了大發展的機遇，中國的微網志正在獲得成功，正在成功地打破資訊封鎖；於是乎，力圖封鎖資訊流通的中國當局的成功，正在給自己帶來失敗。TVBNOW 含有熱門話題，最新最快電視，軟體，遊戲，電影，動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。6 W3 o: b' e8 n! _6 i

CHINA’S military mouthpiece, the Liberation Army Daily, is not a fan of microblogging. On October 19th it said Twitter had caused chaos during Iran’s political turmoil last year, and gave warning that such instant information-sharing tools posed “hidden dangers” to national security. Having blocked access to Twitter, however, China is encouraging home-grown versions. Both the government and its critics have become avid users. + E2 I" ^& Y: P

The government, observing their growing popularity, feared that troublemakers in Xinjiang could use them to foment unrest. Since then Twitter has been available in China only to those with the skills to penetrate the Chinese internet’s “great firewall”. But the authorities quickly gave approval to new China-based microblogging services, or weibo, which employ armies of censors. In February even the Communist Party’s own mouthpiece, the People’s Daily, opened one. tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb& _8 l* u7 f% E0 _- q

The party’s all-powerful Publicity Department tells operators to filter postings for sensitive words. Their detection means automatic deletion. But dissidents are undeterred. News on October 8th that an imprisoned activist, Liu Xiaobo, had been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize spread quickly through domestic microblogs despite the authorities’ best efforts to block it.

Before it was closed last July, the most popular domestic provider, Fanfou, had acquired nearly a million subscribers in two years of operation. The new leading service, Sina Weibo, says it has gained more than 20m registered users since it was launched in August 2009. Last August China Youth News, a newspaper run by the ruling party’s Communist Youth League, reported that in a nationwide survey more than 45% of people under 40 said they were frequent weibo users. More than 94% said that weibo had changed their lives. . K/ S5 k! X4 mTVBNOW 含有熱門話題，最新最快電視，軟體，遊戲，電影，動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。 公仔箱論壇* u/ |+ T$ Y: [) _' Y& x

Hu Yong of Peking University estimates that more than 10m people are weibo regulars. In an article published abroad earlier this month, he claimed that the Chinese were world leaders in microblogging, using it for everything from “social resistance” to “mailing postcards to prisoners of conscience”. Mr Hu argued that this was promoting subtle social progress rather than lighting the fuse of a “Twivolution”, but he reckoned the phenomenon was nonetheless opening up “new possibilities for reshaping China’s authoritarian regime”.; Q+ S' |7 ]# Q; V

One of them, Wen Yunchao (who has more than 32,000 Twitter followers), says he prefers to use weibo if he wants information to be picked up by domestic media. Some of China’s more aggressive journalists are also keen users. In September several tweeted live on the plight of two women who were hiding in an airport lavatory in Jiangxi province. Officials were trying to prevent them flying to Beijing to issue complaints to the central authorities. : B# r! J- V' i

Rebecca MacKinnon, an internet analyst, says anyone wanting to organise something “truly subversive” would not use microblogs anyway, since the government might be able to trace them. And if weibo become more threatening to the party, they can be shut down. In July China’s microblogging services relabelled themselves as “beta” versions, a possible hint that this was all just an experiment. " K o2 W9 I$ Z .
