I have decided to write about isolationist countries and the internet because
it is a very important issue when it comes to free speech and the free flow of
information. In china they have internet police who block websites that are
politically harmful western, and human rights groups. The news on the internet
is completely also completely controlled. Another country that restricts the
free flow information to it's citizens is the southeast asian country of
myanmar.

Censorship is very tight in myanmar but the people have used the internet
almost as a rebellion and continue to use it to obtain information that they
normally would not have the chance of recieving.
