I decided to post this list of webspace providers that whose members' sites are blocked off by the chinese firewall.

Why is this important? Well, china has 1/5 of the world's population and that could be many potential visitors. Anyways here's the list:

1. Geocities
2.hypermart
3.AngelFire
4.Crosswinds
5.Fortunecity
6.Spaceports(the main page is block but you can reach them through ftp)
7.tripod


Thats all the major ones I can think of for now, I'll keep everyone updated. Unfortunately I just listed half the web.

This is interesting and new to me. MaGiSun (sorry for spelling) also mentioned it. Why are those hosts blocked?

It all depends on point of view. Those party members could to say - it is not we who are surrounded by the wall. On the contrary - we are outside; you - inside it :) Their laws mustbe prove it.
