Totalitarian Olympics

I'm usually pretty annoyed when the Olympics come around - 2 weeks of tedious blather about overly fit people doing things slightly faster or better than each other. But this time it's being hosted by a totalitarian regime that kills, oppresses, and censors its citizens, so there's even more reason to boycott anything Olympics-related.

Amnesty International are running a campaign to try to raise awareness about the censorship that's going on (which has been increased for the Olympics, to ensure that as few people as possible get worried about the police state they're running).



Have a look, and try to do something to support them.
