CHINA BANS WHATSAPP

By
WhatsApp has finally been banned from in China mainland by the country's government, with photo and video sharing, text message and other WhatsApp features are currently not functional.
Meanwhile, WhatsApp has previously been blocked but was lifted with few days and this time, it's unclear when the ban will be lifted.

The ban of WhatsApp has also affects some other services including normal messaging. It's not hard to get the reasoning for the move WhatsApp surveillance impossible or difficult.

However, the move had made all Chinese users to switch to a popular messaging service in the country called WeChat which is owned by Tecent, a Chinese company that often accepts information request by china government.

Considering the ban of Facebook, Instagram and even the last Mark Zuckerberg messaging app in China, WhatsApp ban, I think this has likely put a dent for Facebook's plan to expand more services into the country.

Time for  Mike Tyson  to listen up ... because if he wants some of the personal (and bizarre) items he USED to own back,  TMZ Sports  has a way for Iron Mike to recover his crap. What kinda stuff are we talking about here? Autographed porn covers (S/O to  Heather Hunter , a legend), personal photos with huge stars like  Eddie Murphy   and  Johnny Gill ,   and even legal documents from Mike's time as a not-so-great citizen. This haul of goodies ended up in the hands of a guy named  Richus Allen , who tells us he bought the stuff from a thrift shop in Fayetteville, North Carolina. So how'd he get it? Allen says Mike's personal barber put the stuff in a storage unit, then defaulted on the payments. The thrift store bought the unit, then Allen bought the stuff. Richus tells us he wants Mike to know he has his old crap, just in case MT wants some of his memories -- including pics of his now deceased mother figure  Camille Ewald  -...
