US State Department hopes to break through ‘great firewall of China’

The United States plans to pump millions of dollars into new
technology to break through Internet censorship overseas...

"In effect, we're going to be redirecting information back in that
governments have initially blocked," Posner said.

"This can be done through email or posting it on blogs or RSS feeds or
websites that the government hasn't figured out how to block," he
said.

The Falungong developed the so-called Global Internet Freedom
Consortium, a software to evade China's Internet firewall that was so
effective that Iranians sought it out during 2009 protests against the
clerical regime.
