Egypt crisis: China bans google, facebook, twitter

Egypt crisis: China bans google, facebook, twitter: Fearing possible backlash due to ongoing Egypt crisis, China has blocked several search engines and social networking websites in the country.

China has banned search engine giant Google, social networking website Facebook and microblogging website twitter in the wake of public revolution in Egypt against President Hosni Mubarak.

The communist government in China has also blocked the search options in several websites. The government has been trying to stop the internet search related to the recent comment on Egypt protest.

Meanwhile, the protest has been worsened in Egypt as people defied the night curfew. The death toll has also mounted to 150 so far. On the other hand, the Egypt crisis is also expected to hit the key share markets in the world on Monday
