Heaps of sites are blocked in China. http://www.greatfirewallofchina.org/ has a test to check whether a site is blocked in China (unfortunately, looks like it's down at the moment).
Google is blocked, Wikipedia is blocked, Flickr is blocked, MegaUpload is blocked, other sites are blocked too. Supposedly, they block all blogs as well :o

As far as I know, the main Google site (google.com) is blocked. google.cn is allowed, but search results are censored (several results are omitted)

i don't think they really block blogs? not the chinese ones anyway i reckon... because in a mock exam for chinese that i did they were talking about chinese blogs and their difference with Western blogs o.0

One question. Can you use a proxy server to get on other blocked sites in china?

Yes. If you get caught you will be in trouble though.

use a proxy to get onto a proxy and use the proxy within proxy =D
or build one yourself, it isnt that hard right?

You missed the point of that comprehension. The difference between western blogs and chinese blogs is that one exists and the other doesn't.
jk :P
And yes, it is oh-so-sweet that we're giving Bogged-down old Server grief. :)

Says who?
As if the Chinese could touch me here. That is if they find me =)
..unless you're referring to a Chinese person in China using a proxy server to proxy out.

That's exactly what I mean. Of course their laws have no power on you here.

However, at least one person here and one in the UK faced extradition to America over hacking "offences"
-
Oh, that's probably because they were charged with hacking U.S. private property, so there is a grounds for extradition.
If you are surfing the internet freely in Australia, they have no grounds to lock you up just because they have a different philosophy on how free the internet should be. I should have said it better, but I'm not sure how.

well google wasn't blocked
myspace wasn't blocked
fsn wasn't blocked

In Australia, at least, a person cannot generally be extradited unless dual criminality is shown - this is where the subject of an extradition request must have a committed an offence that would also be an offence under Australian law.
A good example to cite is the 'gag order' placed by the US on David Hicks - where he can't talk to the media at all for the next year(?). If he were to tell his story to the media, Australia would be obliged to refuse any extradition request from the US as there is no law preventing him from doing so here (that said, he cannot profit from his story).
-
I think extradition is justified if you are within their jurisdictions (hacking private property belonging to a U.S. individual). Breaking a freedom of speech law (from China, for example) while you are in Australia is a completely different matter.
-
Well, it's because 'trespass' (in the most loose of context) is applicable in both countries...
In Australia, it's not illegal to speak out against the government (not 100% ever since the new sedition laws, but it is still present for the most part - there is no explicit freedom of speech in Australia).
-
yeah, some sites are blocked, but every1 use proxy to go on.
