How Many Athlete's In 2008 Will Go To Jail?

With many western ideals going to China for the Olympics, I wonder how many Olympians may find their way into the Chinese justice system. This small look into how China controls access to the Internet is very interesting and worth a look (via Digg/Reporters Without Borders).
I am sure that China won't toss a few athletes into jail for surfing the Internet - but I don't see how an entire world can ignore the lack of freedoms in the country once they touch down for the games. I certainly hope some campaign will be launched to bring International attention to the cultural and governmental differences.
