Google censors itself for China

Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible

Yahoo, Google and Microsoft are part of the "Great Firewall". They helped build the infrastructure to block information.

Sometimes I think this whole world
Is one big prison yard:
Some of us are prisoners,
The rest of us are guards.

Hugh who!

Sorry AtW, but without ranking algorithms and sponsored links, SKA is still the software equivalent of a big boy's train set, no more than a toy.

This is the cost of doing business with a bunch of commie bistards!

Mind you, how loud would the outcry have been if you replace china with America?

It seems that as long as its not america doing stuff like this that its ok.

You know full well that the USA is the evil empire (OK, so they don't execute thousands of prisoners at a time in football stadia, OK, so they don't attempt to track every move their citizens make, OK so they don't have purges making millions of people disappear, OK so they don't use chemical weapons on their neighbours, but they're still an evil democracy).
Pah, you fascist.

I thought China were our cuddly mates now, what with their "market" that we've all got to get into, giving them the Olympics, learning Chinese at school.

Stop moaning about Tibet and give them back Taiwan, I say.

I already have (albeit poor) ranking algorithms that will get improved considerably in the following weeks. Can't see relevance of sponsored links.

More like not imposing my ethics on others - no censorship however, unless its spam or owner requests for data to be removed.
