China to block foreign MMOs?

New Chinese Regulations May Block Foreign MMOs | Game | Life from Wired.com

The new regulations give China's General Administration of Press and Publication (the group responsible for the rating and censorship of games, television, books, etc.) the ability to indefinitely postpone their evaluation (and thus, the public release) of a game if that game's creators or publisher is currently being "sued or targeted for arbitration" by a Chinese game company. Until the suit or complaint is resolved, the GAPP has the option to eternally delay any title's release.

It seems that a Chinese game company can eliminate foreign competition by simply filing some sort of lawsuit against the foreign game company.
