In cooperation with the ruling regime, Weibo sets strict control over the content published under its service BIBREF0. According to Zhu et al. zhu-etal:2013, Weibo uses a variety of strategies to target censorable posts, ranging from keyword list filtering to individual user monitoring. Among all posts that are eventually censored, nearly 30% of them are censored within 5–30 minutes, and nearly 90% within 24 hours BIBREF1. We hypothesize that the former are done automatically, while the latter are removed by human censors. 
 Question: Is is known whether Sina Weibo posts are censored by humans or some automatic classifier?
No
