In celebration of ten years of blogging here at LTG, each week for the next 52 51 50 49 48 47 46 45 44 43 42 41 40 39 38 37 36 35 34 33 32 313029 28 27 26 25 24 23 22 21 20 weeks I will delve deep into the sewer archives of past posts to bring you a tidbit of blog history. I had originally planned to call this series “The best of LTG”, but damn, there just wasn’t much “best” to be found. And mediocre is too hard to spell.)
Ten years ago found me raging at censorship in the ROK in a post aptly titled “Censorship in the ROK”.
Kevin Kim of Big Hominid fame had a lot to say on the issue as well. But sometimes words just won’t suffice, so he let this picture do his talking:
MIC is the Korean Ministry of Information and Communication
The block on blogs was lifted shortly thereafter, although it is unclear if the photo above played into that decision.
Of course, all the best porn sites are still blocked in Korea. Which is why God invented the VPN. Not that I’d ever have the need to use one.
Wow. You know, I tried to find that pic on my blog and somehow failed to locate it. Hats off to you and your sleuthing skills.
I had actually used that picture in my original post so there was no sleuthing involved. When I went to your archives for the link I also did not see the pic.
