Default Report: Chinese Hotels Ordered to Spy on Olympic Guests' Internet

Nice! Why is it exactly that the free world gave these people the Olympic games in the first place?

This is why I will not even watch the Olympics...

But I will support my country's athletes!
I'll just read about their exploits in the paper on the internet...

Oh well, I'm just really waiting for 2012...

It's like 1936 all over again...
I hope our guys over there could steamroll the competition, especially Reds!

Damn, commies!

The Olympic games this year are going to be a PR disaster for China.

There have already been people lifted to the hospital with severe breathing problems. And that was before this even thicker smog rolled in.

And China is not going to be able to hide the HD cameras showing the details of the pollution.

They wanted it, they can have it!

I wonder what will happen when the first chinese athlete test positive to drugs??? Will they let the world know or try and supress the news.

The games haven't been the greatest PR event for China so far, and if they continue like this, it could become one of the worst PR disasters that they've had in years
