【禁闻】美研发地下互联网对抗独裁者封锁

【新唐人2011年6月15日讯】美国《纽约时报》报导，美国政府正加紧出钱出力，研发
专供手机及电脑使用的「地下互联网」，帮助外国异见人士能绕过政府审查，传递信
息，打破网络封锁。大陆互联网专家对于这项努力表示欢迎，不过也建议美国政府通过
资助民间专业人士，采用更加大众化的互联网反封锁技术。

据《纽约时报》引述官员的话说，美国这项秘密计划，包括在外国国内架设独立的手机
网络，以及「行李箱互联网」。这个资助200万美元研发的装置，看起来好像普通行李
箱，但可以利用特制软件，很快建立覆盖大范围的无线网络，并跟全球网络接通。

据报导，这种「行李箱互联网」系统，依靠无线网状网络技术，能藉助参与者的手机或
个人电脑，建立一个隐形地下无线网络；每部手机或无线装置，只要装上特制软件，就
能充当「迷你发射塔」，将信号传送给其他手机流动装置。

曾经担任《信息产业报》总编的大陆互联网专家王俊秀，也是「互联网实验室」的创办
人之一，他对于美国政府「反封锁」的努力表示欢迎，但表示，目前大陆民众大量使用
的还是翻墙软件，比如「无界」和「自由门」。

王俊秀（《互联网周刊》执行总编）： 「但是我觉得他们投入的力度好像还不太
够，第二个我们还没有看到实际的效果。当然他这个方向我觉得是值得肯定的。」

曾先后担任《中公网》执行长、雅虎中国总经理，以及《一起网》执行长的大陆互联网
专家谢文：认为，使用设备突破网路封锁太昂贵，不能够普及。他认为，通过开发软件
在互联网上直接突破封锁更为有效。

谢文表示，「无界」和「自由门」是这个技术的代表，但是可能由于资金和技术的不
足，最近常常不好用。谢文建议美国政府与其自行研发，不如大力资助民间的专业人士
开发反封锁技术，因为他们对互联网更熟悉，对网民的需要更了解。

谢文（大陆互联网专家）：「我原来以为他们很高级，能够直接走互联网，用什么高招
就可以把那些封锁给打破。完全不是。还是要做设备。那个不太可能大规模普及的。肯
定是「无界」、「自由门」这样的好。硬体，专业工具，那些东西都不可能大规模普及
的。」

对于独裁国家的网路封锁，和西方国家的反封锁之间，这场没有硝烟的战争，谁终将胜
利？王俊秀表示，互联网本身的结构就是一个开放的结构，所以它在本质上是很难封锁
的。谢文认为，这是一场结局分明的战争。

谢文：「从道理上，从世界主流上，新科技互联网带来的对人类社会�步带来的便
利，肯定是占主流的，是压倒的，世界上也只有数得出来的几个国家在搞网路封锁，而
且也不是绝对意义上的封锁，除非像埃及那样断网，所以我不觉得这是一个势均力敌的
所谓虚拟战争。」

过去数十年，美国主要透过"美国之音"等媒体管道，向极权国家散播自由民主理念，之
后开始发展网路软件，帮助中国大陆等地在专制统治下的网民"翻墙"，躲避当局的封
锁；最新尝试则着重于开发崭新的通信途径。

而《法新社》在稍早前曾经报导，法轮功组织研发的「全球互联网自由联盟」网络翻墙
软件，在对付中国的网络封锁方面很有效，伊朗示威者在2009年发动反政府示威时，就
曾使用过这种翻墙软件。

"Internet In A Suitcase"

New York Times recently reported thatthe US government is funding the
developmentof "underground" Internet for cell phones and PC'sto help
foreign dissidents bypass the censorshipof their governments. Chinese
Internet expertswelcome these efforts, but also suggestthe US government
use more popularanti-Internet blockade technology by fundingthe work of
civilian network professionals.

New York Times quoted US official aboutthe project including separate cell
phone networksin foreign countries, and an "Internet in a
suitcase."Developed with a grant of USD2 million,the ordinary-looking
"suitcase" can be set upquickly to allow wireless communicationsover a wide
area, with a link to the global Internet.

Relying on wireless network technology,this "Internet suitcase" system can
use cell phonesor PC's to build an "underground" wireless network.All
wireless devices can act as "mini-towers"to send signals to other mobile
devices.

Ex-editor-in-chief of Information Industry newspaper,Wang Junxiu, is one of
the founders of Internet Lab.He welcomed US anti-censorship effortsbut said
the Chinese still mostly use softwareto leap the Firewall, including Wujie
and Freegate.

Wang Junxiu: "I don't think they have put inenough efforts. We haven't seen
tangible results.I think this direction is worth recognition, of course."

Ex-CEO of Yahoo China, Internet expert Xie Wenbelieves that using devices
to break blockadesis too expensive and cannot be popularized.He thinks that
developing software to directlybreak Internet blockades is more effective.

Xie said, Wujie and Freegate are representativesof this technology.
However, due to lack of fundingand technology, they are lately difficult to
use.Xie Wen suggested to the US government thatinstead of doing its own
research and development,it could fund the work of civilian
professionals,as they understand netizens' needs better.

Who will win the battle between Internet censorshipof dictatorships and the
anti-blockades West?Wang said that as Internet has an open structure,it is
very difficult to be blocked.Xie Wen thinks the outcome of the war is clear.

Xie Wen: "The convenience to human societybrought by Internet technology is
overwhelming.Only a few countries are censoring the Internet,and it is not
in an absolute sense of Internet closure,unless the Internet was cut off,
as in Egypt's case.So I don't think this is a so-called "virtual war.'"

In the past few decades, via Voice of Americaand other media, the US spread
the valuesof freedom and democracy to totalitarian countries.The US then
developed Internet software to helpnetizens in authoritarian regimes, like
China,to "leap over the wall" and bypass the censorship.Its latest efforts
focus on new channels.

As per AFP, Global Internet Freedom Consortium,which is organized by Falun
Gong practitioners,has developed effective anti-blockades' software.They
are used not only by citizens in China,but in 2009 Iranian protestors have
used them too.
