3/26/13, "The astonishing speed of Chinese censorship," BBC
"There are other censorship mechanisms, too. Sometimes Sina Weibo suspends posts until they can be manually checked, telling the user that the delay is because of "server data synchronisation".
It also uses "camouflaged posts", making it appear to a user that their post was successfully posted, but other users are not able to see the post and the poster is not aware of this.
Censors also track backwards to delete sensitive topics everywhere they arise, and monitor specific users."...(near end of article)
"Top topics censored during monitoring
- Support Syrian rebels
- Lying of gov (Jixian)
- Beijing rainstorms
- Judicial independence
- Freedom of speech
- One-Child policy abuse
- Group sex
- Corpse plants in Dalian
- Human Rights news"
