The omniscient Danwei noticed this afternooon that access to YouTube had been restored in mainland China. To be honest, I had stopped looking. Two weeks ago today, the site was blocked suddenly while the National Communist Congress convened in Beijing. The block also coincided with Google’s launch of two Chinese language YouTube sites, one in Taiwan and one in Hong Kong. This may have been what irritated China’s web censors. I’d like to think that YouTube came back for the sole purpose of allowing me to post this video, which I have been saving for the liberation of YouTube. It is every reason I love YouTube rolled into one 1-minute-and-11-second video. So welcome back YouTube. I hope you’re back for good.
