German publishing house cooperating with Chinese censorship - Soynadie Press Agency

lkfitz's bookmarks 2017-11-11

Summary:

"Springer Nature confirmed last week that it has blocked online access to around 100 of its articles from within China. The censorship affects such sensitive subjects – sensitive for the Chinese authorities – as Taiwan, Tibet, human rights and the biographies of Chinese leaders. The company said the choice of the articles was left to the Chinese authorities themselves, which takes publishing house servility to a new level."
