I didn’t blog about the YouTube block earlier this month because I just couldn’t accept it as the truth. Sure, I got the denial of service message just like the rest of the folks stuck here behind the GFW, but something just wouldn’t let me believe it was actually happening.
I woke up each day, determined today would be the day that the balance in the universe would be set right, and I would again be able to watch ninjas give me advice and random clips of people getting hit in the balls. Every day I was left wanting. That is, until today.
YouTube is unblocked!!
And to celebrate, here’s a cool little video. If you can’t see it – it means I spoke too soon.
Happy Halloween from Lost Laowai
Oh, and be sure to check out our Chinese Halloween vocabulary to arm yourself with some spooky Mandarin. And don’t forget to take a look at our cool collection of Laowai China videos while they’re still working.
That’s fantastic news – I didn’t write about it either, maybe denial was a magically good way of bringing back Youtube to China?
Up and running in Dalian. So much for getting work done (not complaining).
Happy Halloween.
