(All survived in Henan, where the weapon was a knife, not an AR-15.)</p> <p>As a commentary piece in the state-controlled Global Times noted: “The Chinese public has focused on the slow official response and the level of social reflection. Many are furious that while the Americans have started mourning nationwide, the Chinese appear insensitive to the Henan case.” </p> <div>Another <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130305065039/http://usa.chinadaily.com.cn/china/2012-12/18/content_16029337.htm" target="_self">story</a> today, carried by China Daily, caught my attention. It describes an example of how profoundly off-key propaganda can be here, and the anger that can sometimes spark:</div> <p>"Xinyang Daily, an official newspaper of the Communist Party of China Xinyang municipal committee, apologized on Tuesday on its front page for a report praising educational achievements after a knifeman's attack on a school in the city.</p> <p>Twenty-three students were injured during the incident on Friday at an elementary school in Guangshan county of Xinyang city in Central China's Henan province.</p> <p>Most of the students sustained head injuries or cuts to their fingers or ears, and required immediate surgery.</p> <p>Two days later, Xinyang Daily published a report on its front page titled 'Guangshan: striving to build sound education satisfying people's needs.'</p> <p>'Great achievements have been made in Guangshan's education sector,' the report said. 'Education has become a banner, a window and a name card of the county.'</p> <p>The report has aroused massive criticism in Chinese cyberspace, with critics calling the journalists insensitive."</p>

to many both in and outside of China, see Charles Custer's blog <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130305065039/http://www.techinasia.com/google-warns-china-users-statesponsored-attacks/"

UPDATE: This item at Foreign Policy is a good explainer, click <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130305065039/http://thecable.foreignpolicy.com/posts/2012/06/05/google_to_warn_users_targeted_by_state_sponsored_attacks" target="_self">here</a>.):</p> <p>Your account could be at risk of state-sponsored attacks</p> <p>About the security threat</p> <p>If you were directed to this page from a warning displayed above your Gmail inbox, we believe that state-sponsored attackers may be attempting to compromise your account or computer.</p> <p>It's likely that you received emails containing malicious attachments, links to malicious software downloads, or links to fake websites that are designed to steal your passwords or other personal information. For example, attackers have often been known to send PDF files, Office documents, or RAR files with malicious contents. <strong>We strongly recommend that you avoid clicking links or attachments in suspicious messages.</strong></p> <p>It's important to note that Google's internal systems are not compromised and that this message does not refer to one specific campaign. We routinely receive abuse reports from users, as well as from our internal systems that monitor for suspicious login attempts and other activity. To help defend the integrity of these systems, we aren't sharing more details about these attacks. However, after carefully studying the abuse reports, we decided to show you the message in Gmail to help warn and protect you from potential attacks.</p> <p>What you can do</p> <p>Most importantly, avoid clicking links and attachments in unfamiliar messages as well as suspicious looking messages that seem to be from someone you know.</p> <p>We also strongly advise you to take extra steps to protect your computer and accounts:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Be careful about where you sign in to Google.</strong> Attackers often send links to fake sign-in pages to try to steal your password. Whenever you sign in to Google products, make sure that the webpage address shown at the top of your browser1 window starts with <em>https://accounts.google.com/</em>. Use a strong password for Google that you don't use on any other website, keeping in mind these <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130305065039/http://www.google.com/support/accounts/bin/answer.py?answer=32040">tips for a safe password</a> .</li> <li> </li> <li><strong>Always use up-to-date software</strong> including your Internet browser, operating system, plugins, and document editors. Consider switching to the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130305065039/http://www.google.com/chrome/intl/en/more/security.html">Chrome browser</a> , which has an auto-updating security feature to reduce the risk associated with running out-of-date software.</li> <li> </li> <li><strong>Enable </strong><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130305065039/http://support.google.com/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=180744"><strong>2-step verification</strong></a><strong>  in Gmail.</strong> This feature sends a second password to your phone, giving you an extra layer of security that has been successful in protecting some accounts from these attacks.</li> </ul> <p>By following these steps, you can dramatically decrease the likelihood of your account or computer becoming compromised.</p> <p>The warning above your Gmail inbox will remain for a while to help remind you to take the recommended steps above. The alert will disappear after that time, but we encourage you to take action as soon as you can.</p> <p> <div class="blog_tools"> <ul class="inlist"> <li>Posted by Tom Lasseter at 12:38 AM </li> <li>
