The owner of FB -Mark is behaving badly lately inside China, the communist regime is trying to teach him a lesson by temporarily suspend his website in the country. OR it is look upon as a potential trouble making social networking site, the internal security agency of the great communist party blacklisted FB as a security threat for connecting Chinese population, it doesn't want to see the same "Arab Spring" political changes inside China brought about by People Power. Either way, nothing you can do about it; Communists are in control of China.

oh this is what i think too, more on control about what their people can view, and participate into over there. of course they had to put restrictions even on websites their people get to access over there in china.

Chinese government ban facebook in their country because facebook may indirectly lead the anti-socialist people in china to group together and will make revolution against their country.
