    The Great Firewall of China. Basically all publicly available internet access in China must route through hardware owned by the Government. The government restricts what can and can’t resolve.

      I know about that, I’m just asking about whether this is manual or automatic.

        I don’t know if i understand your question. I believe you are asking whether the blocks are contextual based on content or if there is a group of people checking sites to see whether or not they should be blocked. We don’t know for sure because they don’t talk about it officially but it is probably both.
