| Re: Remember China Free speech? What the hell? China has it's own legal system and their own set of laws. Anyone doing business in China needs to respect that. Google had no choice since China is a major player and next super power. They could either obey the law or piss them off and get booted.
Besides if Americans really cared about it you would not see "MADE IN CHINA" sticker on 99% of merchandise sold in the US. | |

1 edit | There is a difference between doing business in China and assisting China in tracking down people so they can be put in jail, for nothing more than using a search engine. Google had the option to say "Sorry we don't keep that information."
They also have the option to not modify their search engines to accommodate propaganda, but they choose not to exercise that option when profits are on the line.
But the both of you miss the significance of the actual issue; if Google will drop a dime on people using their SEARCH ENGINE, do you think they will bat an eye when asked to turn over your entire browsing history to Homeland Security? You can bet they won't.
As well both of you seem to miss the irony of Google purporting to support free and unfettered access to the Internet and information, showing how your "ISP might be playing tricks on you." While doing the same in the name of the same desire, more profits.

| Re: Remember China I'm sorry but you are showing your total ignorance to the facts here. You clearly have no idea at all about what actually happened with Google and China, but even worse you have absolutely no clue about what goes on right here in the USofA. Google was the one company that took the US government to court over records.
Yahoo and MS handed info over, Google fought. The judge ruled in favor of the government, but he required Google to hand over much less info than wanted.
If you are going to have a cause you not only need to believe in it, you need to understand it. Clearly, you DO NOT understand ANYTHING. | |

| Ok heres a simple way to use this problem. Its like 2008 and almost everyone on here has more than one pc. Why not take one PC and install google. Run this pc for only that and never get on it except to look at the information.
Also if your that paranoid, you can vlan that pc so every other device in your house cannot see it. | |
