Just found this on our local news web site: :)

RALEIGH, N.C. -- A North Carolina company is among those offering an Internet tool that allows Chinese Internet users dodge the Communist country's censorship of topics like human rights, religion, and peasant uprisings.

Censor-thwarting efforts launched by Dynamic Internet Technology and others dubbed "hacktivist" have come into the international limelight since a congressional subcommittee earlier this month hauled executives from Google, Yahoo, Microsoft and Cisco Systems into hearings about their business dealings in China.

The companies were branded collaborators with the Chinese government in suppressing dissent in return for access to a booming Internet market. The hearings also drew attention to the fact that many Chinese have employed software that allows them to get around the Web censors.
