Well since they donâ€™t use an alphabet like most of the rest of us it kinda makes sense in a strange communist dictatorship kinda way.

Maybe the US should adopt this law, I see a lot of strange names on the news every time there is a shooting in the city and some of them are not spelled correctly. Their parents didnâ€™t even bother to spell their childâ€™s name right! Whatâ€™s up with that?

They have 30,000 public employees banning words from Google, but they can't add another 50 to upgrade the software/hardware?

If they took the 30,000 censors and made each of them program one character they'd be halfway done in a month.

Sounds like plain lazyness to me, and doing otherwise would contradict Mao's Cultural revolution anyway. Death to ancient Chinese already.

We have several names thats banned in Norway. The reason being some childnames makes them an easy offer in primary school.
