Political reasons for the digital divide

In the countries UK, China and North Korea what types of web sites do there government restrict them from seeing, how do they sensor what you look at and also why do they do this?

The UK government don’t stop the UK from seeing many websites because our country have a freedom of speech therefore giving the public freedom to look at sites that they wants to look at. Our country has a massive difference to countries such as North Korea; in this country they do not allow internet access to the public. Only a few members of the government can get to access they can do this by using a Chinese connection. The government do not allow this country to have access to the internet because the government want to protect themselves and don’t want the public of that country to find out information about them. So they decided to ban the internet complete with other things such as mobile phones and other electrically devices.  In China they are allowed to use the internet access they may well have but it is very restricted. The Chinese government have covered lots of things up to make the government look good. One of the main events which China has blocked from the internet was the protest which took place in the 1989 where a man stood up to the government. Chinas government did not want to look weak and sensor everything about this topic around the country, people knew not to talk about it also. A student who went to Uni a few years after was shown a photo of this had no clue about what happened. This shows how well the government sensor this just to protect there backs so they didn’t look weak in front of the rest of the country.
