Stealth 2084

In China, the stuffs related to sex will be blocked by the government censorship, even some world famous paintings such as The Creation of Adam was blocked on Weibo as well, and the blocked website will display as ‘404 the website can not be found’, so the number 404 has ironic symbolic significance in China. When sex becomes taboo, sex becomes more and more mysterious and attractive for those who need sex, then all stuffs become sex.  In order to avoid government’s censorship, Chinese Internet users have even created a new language composed of Emoji and symbols, letters and homophones on the Internet. The new code language and the fantasy of eroticization of normal things are people's resistance to the need being imprisoned or even stigmatized.
