Beatriz:

I don't understand why you can't make the link between Chinese 
telecommunication equipment providers , WSIS @ Tunis and censorship. 
Perhaps you need more info..


## English

hint: Technology which helps the Chinese authorities censor the 
Internet, might also be useful to other countries...which, perhaps - 
could mean that the technology which will be "showcased" at the 
summit will in fact be used as a censorship and surveillance 
infrastructure for the summit attendees as well as the Tunisians (who 
no doubt will keep the technology)

Below are a few links and references in case you want to learn more 
about internet censorship in China...Do remember what is used in 
China, can and IS being used elsewhere....

## French

conseil:  La technologie qui aide les autorités chinoises censurent 
l'Internet, la force soit également utile à d'autres pays... qui, 
peut-être - pourraient signifier que la technologie qui "sera 
présentée" au sommet sera en fait employé comme infrastructure de 
censure et de surveillance pour les participants de sommet aussi bien 
que les Tunisiens (qui aucun doute ne maintiendra la technologie)

Au-dessous de sont quelques liens et des références au cas où vous 
voudriez apprendre que plus au sujet de la censure d'Internet en 
Chine... rappelez-vous ce qui est employé en Chine, bidon et est 
employées ailleurs....

## Spanish

Pista:  La tecnología que ayuda las autoridades chinas censura el 
Internet, la fuerza también sea útil a otros países... que, quizás - 
podrían significar que la tecnología que "será presentada" en la 
voluntad de la cumbre en hecho utilícese como infraestructura para 
los asistentes de la cumbre así como los tunecinos (quién de la 
censura y vigilanciala ninguna duda mantendrá la tecnología)

Debajo están algunos acoplamientos y las referencias en caso de que 
usted desee aprender que más sobre censura del Internet en China... 
recuerde qué se utiliza en China, lata y se están utilizando a otra 
parte....
