Free speech: Translation as crime

“All media nationwide must use Xinhua’s reporting on the Egyptian riots,” read a directive issued last Friday, referring to the state run Xinhua news agency. “It is strictly forbidden to translate foreign media coverage,” the order said, warning that websites that did not censor comments about Egypt would be “shut down by force.”

which apparently is “管理不力的網站將被強行關閉”

“by force.” lazy evaluation.
