A Few [Tech] Hurdles

Carrying on with ministry overseas can sometimes be a big challenge. Aside from language issues, there can be issues with powering devices, or in the case of wireless devices, just using them.

But what happens when the hurdle is a bit more than just something a few home-remedies can fix. When the problem isn't the tech, but the country itself. In a recent story at GigaOm, this situation was described when a writer spoke about the difficulities in working in China.

Now, while this story talked about how this would hinder the use of tech in China or similar countries, I tend to think about it from the perspective of enablement. Yes, we are not required by any moral law to give empowerment to anyone, are we any more required to take it away?
