From the page:

-- Amnesty International has harsh words for the US companies that participate in China's Internet censorship scheme. A new report (PDF) just out from the human rights group takes Google, Yahoo, and Microsoft task for their work in China, and it also attacks the most common defenses these companies use. Amnesty has also launched a campaign at irrepressible.info that sheds light on Internet censorship and repression around the world. --

The more you look at the whole picture, the more clearly it's all about money. And that's not even starting with Yahoo, who'll happily provide information which puts people in prison.

Good article, Irma.
