Be Scared Of China (Sometimes)

---

Status of Chinese People is an aggregator blog primarily spotlighting news stories about authoritarian abuses committed by the Chinese Government. One can read through it for useful (if not always or entirely definitive) background on the persecution of Falun Gong, Tibet, censorship, and freedom of speech-we are particularly fond, however, of its collection of stories about shoddily produced and counterfeit goods. The special link to "Bloody Harvest," a lengthy investigation into persistent allegations that the Chinese government and military have colluded to create a profitable trade in so-called "transplant tourism" by harvesting live organs from imprisoned Falun Gong members, is truly the stuff of nightmares though.
