okay now this is scary
Chen Jiahao, who goes by the online name Acid Flask, closed down his weblog caustic.soda after A*Star threatened legal action. Chen had revealed the unfairness of the system of state loans to graduate students – appropriately known as bonding - in comments to the media and on his blog. He had also published statistics that showed that Singapore's investment in research produced much paper, but little result in terms of peer review credit. The site has now closed and links to an apology to A*Star and its chairman Philip Yeo that reads in part: "The price of maintaining the content which used to be accessible at this URL has become too high for the author to afford."
