It makes me wonder....what if “something” happens...will the Chinese attempt to “shut off” news coming out of Beijing? Would that even be possible? Could they shut off ALL outbound channels for EVERYONE?

I mean...these Olympics are the first ones since 1980 that are being held in a police state. The last time before that? Berlin 1936.

According to the CBC announcers security is obvious and probably the most sophisticated ever seen so far probably due to the advancement of technology and time over past games. Let’s see what happens if anything.
