Chinese netizens blast censored Game of Thrones

HBO's website is blocked in China, forcing most to watch the approved-for-China version of the Emmy Award-winning television series -- though some netizens find ways to get beyond the country's"great firewall".

"Tencent is making us pay to see a castrated version of Game of Thrones," said another user, who identified herself as a 19-year-old girl."It is a bit uncomfortable watching the censored version," tweeted another user with the handle Wang Bubble. "If those scenes are not worth seeing, why would the writer write them? Why would the director shoot them? People who like Game of Thrones don't like it for the porn and violence but for the whole thing," Wang said.
