This is just ridiculous. This goes way beyond what they originally intended with stopping suspected IP Theft or backdoors by Huawei. This is a black day for academic progress and research in general.
Google Scholar or Wikipedia websites has been banned in China for a decade, Do you think this is ridiculous?

Ridiculous and a laughable accusation. The page you referred to has nothing substantial. Both Rosenberg and Hiss are proved to be innocent quickly but lots of people became silent because of McCarthy. If you want to go back to the dark ages, go yourself. Do not put your insensible sense to all the knowledgable people here.
Are you challenging the fact that the U.S.S.R. had extensive espionage networks in the U.S. during the 1950s, including the Rosenbergs who were in fact guilty of spying for the Soviet Union? McCarthysim per se was horrible, but the fact remains that the Red Scare was grounded in historical truth. https://www.amazon.com/Venona-Decoding-Espionage-America-Com... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julius_and_Ethel_Rosenberg

Why is that a reason to ban academics?
These Chinese gov did't intend to ban academics, but political materials. But since they value their own benefits much higher than the benefits of academics to the Chinese people, they ban all the things, maybe because it's not technically easy to just ban individual pages given the huge amount of the materials. That's a very bad thing to ban the free Internet access.

#54We need to kill Huawei first, with some collateral damages to others, so that Huawei cannot do bad things to us in the future, even though there is no evidence or court ruling that Huawei is hacking anyone at this moment. Last time it was Iraq's WMD/washing powder.

#59It seems that Huawei is the US hostage in the China-US trade negotiations. I wonder who the US company will be that China will decides to screw over in retaliation?
