China blocks Internet comments on the pope

The rest of the world mourns the Pope. Leaders from all religions and countries send their condolences.

A large number of people visit the Vatican to pay the last respects to the Pope.

However, China is opposing the trend. "China's web portals have blocked prayers, blessings and other comment on the death of Pope John Paul II from being posted on the Internet.

"An official with Sohu.com confirmed the company had censored the comments, using sophisticated technology to allow only the writer to see his or her own comments." Which is - a very lame excuse!
