[governance] China backs down on filter?

[Ginger Paque]

According to: 
http://tech.yahoo.com/news/ap/20090630/ap_on_hi_te/as_tec_china_internet

"BEIJING - In a rare reversal, China's government gave in to domestic 
and international pressure and backed down Tuesday from a rule that 
would have required personal computers sold in the country to have 
Internet-filtering software."

Does anyone have more news on this?
