Submission + - More freedom or Balkanization of the internet

tvlinux writes: ICANN has voted to allow new top level domains and non English languages for URLs. This give people in non English speaking countries the ability to navigate the internet in their native language. This divides the internet into language areas where there is no common reference. RFC3987 defines Internationalized Resource Identifiers (IRIs) that browsers will need to comply with (which browser will be the first to support this)?

Submission + - Chinese learning from US ways, tirivial law suits (china.org.cn)

tvlinux writes: Chinese women sue CNN for US$1.3 billion. Two law suits, one in Beijing and one in New York claiming the remarks by commentator Jack Cafferty labeling Chinese "goons and thugs" violated the dignity and reputation of the Chinese people and intentionally or recklessly inflicted emotional distress on the plaintiffs. This sounds like a law suit by someone from America would file. The China are becoming more and more like the US while the US is becoming more like China.
