'Yahoo Betrayed My Husband'
Submitted by Ali Hassan Massoud on Mon, 2007-03-19 17:00
"Moments later, [Chinese] government agents swarm through the front door -- 10 of them, some in uniform, some not. They take Wang away. They take his computers and disks. They shove an official notice into Yu's hands, tell her to keep quiet, and leave. This is how it's done in China . This is how the Internet police grab you....Yu's husband is now in Beijing Prison No. 2, serving a 10-year sentence for inciting subversion with his pro-democracy Internet writings. According to the written court verdict, the Chinese government convicted Wang, in part, on evidence provided by Yahoo."
