images/news/google.jpgYouTube has once again been blocked by the Chinese government. Google has been given no reason for the blockage, but discovered it themselves after noticing a decline in Chinese traffic around noon on Monday. Many believe the blockage relates to recent videos depicting alleged brutality by Chinese police in Tibet.
Users attempting to access the site in China encounter the error message: "Network Timeout. The server at youtube.com is taking too long to respond."
Many citizens of China are speculating the ban was an attempt by the government to prevent citizen access to footage which was recently released by a Tibetan exile group showing citizens of Tibet allegedly being brutalized by Chinese police officers.
