Google bowing to the Chinese.
What is everybody's thoughts about Google recently, the latest controversy to surround our favourite Search Engine is their submission to Chinese strong hand tactics to suppress the freedom of information allowed to the online Chinese community.
Verified News Link: Here Example: Open a google page and copy/paste Tiananmen Square it will return nearly 2,000,000 results. Now open up google.cn (the chinese alternative) and again copy/paste Tiananmen Square, this time the results are around 598,000. Now that's a lot of filtering -- and we are not even behind the countrys self-proclaimed 'Great Firewall'. Which would restrict a Chinese surfer even greater. Why am I suddely thinking 'George Orwell and 1984' right now. ![]() |

not much that we can do... it's not like people are being slain in there. it's their
own problem and sooner or later it's going to change. ![]() |
