China detecting, blocking VPNs

http://j.mp/WrZyYp  (Guardian)

   "A number of companies providing "virtual private network" (VPN)
    services to users in China say the new system is able to "learn,
    discover and block" the encrypted communications methods used by a
    number of different VPN systems."

How much you want to bet that a US firm or firms are somehow complicit
in this technology?
