Weekly New/Digital Media Homework 06/01/17

China have always had a firewall which stops the people of their nation from accessing certain material online. This is seen to protect them but also blind them from what is going on around the world. Russia have also made it clear that they're not going to follow in the footsteps of China by putting up a firewall.

I think that this is a good thing because people need to access the internet for certain reasons and its wrong for the government to restrict the knowledge that people have. People won't be aware of what is going on and will be alienated.
