Dic. 12 (DP.net).- El Informe sobre Libertad Religiosa en el Mundo 2010 que ha presentado la organización Ayuda a la Iglesia Necesitada (AIN)  analiza 194 países, de los que existen problemas en unos 90, entre ellos varios de los más poblados del mundo: China, India, Indonesia, Rusia, Pakistán ...

Over the last 25 years, companies like Dell, Nvidia, Thermo Fisher, and IBM have sold technology to the Chinese government that enabled them to monitor and control their population like no other government in history.
