It’s pretty said what’s happening in China with Internet and Google.
But I have to say that I like the idea that Google is not soo mighty and powerfull all around.
And Also, I just think if China has been like this (and I’m not going into other subjects like kills, arrests etc etc just talking about the controls on porn, certain themes etc) I guess that google should know it just cannot expect the gov., the people and the country to change this fast.
I mean it’s a 5000 years culture, and for how long is google with us? 11? in China I dont even know…
Anyway, here you have some news about it at

BUTTTTTTTTTTT I dont really like the source, so I was checking some other articles in Spanish and Portuguese and apparently there are thousands of Chineses that are actually asking google to leave…
I don’t wanna give my word, I’m an internet professional, I love freedom of expression but I’m just saying that western companies cannot expect to come and change whatever they want, my opinion is that they are doing business there, and they have to face ALL the difficults that come.
And in case the business is profitable they will eventually stay.
What do you think about it?
