Man in China dies after three-day Internet session - Yahoo! News

It’s charming how quickly the Chinese government blames video games and pornography for the death of internet “addicts”. Me, I think it’s a sign that life just plain sucks in China. You don’t hear about “internet deaths” anywhere else… not even tech-happy Sweden and their 100mbit residential broadband.

There’s a lot of things I think the Chinese government does poorly (like running a country * Ahem!), but at least they’re good for one thing: warning the rest of the world!
