The Great Firewall of China blocks even its own creator
Fang Binxing is being mocked online, because he was forced to set up a VPN in front of a live audience to get past the Great Firewall of China, according to BBC. If it were anyone else, it wouldn't be such a big deal, but Fang Binxing isn't just anyone: he's known as the "Father of China's Great Firewall" and is one of the system's staunchest defenders. More amusingly, this happened during his lecture at the Harbin Institute of Technology in the mainland, wherein he talked about countries that also control what you can visit on the internet.
