An information war has been started by China to promote its own image (and the CCP's as well...), and the Beijing Olympics are the atomic bomb of the chinese army. A war made of propaganda, of disinformation, of censorship.
Many - to say the least - have recognised the hostile campaign and started to counter, playing the same war: a war for information.
Many have started, more and more are joining. It's nothing less than that: a war. With a massive, and very powerful army on the other side.
Whoever recognises it, has to take side.
If you don't know much, you can start by giving a look at these sources:
Unmade in China
A post of mine, on the "Burma in Chains" video
Bloggers Boycott 2008 Olympics
Jana's blog on China and CCP
The Nine Commentaries
"Will the boat sink the water?", a must-read book
... plus, obviously, a lot others; any of the links above is but a starting point.
Imagine yourself a few months before 1936 Berlin Olympics. Would you stand still?
Or would you choose a side?
