I think they block it from the their side, so if you're searching from China on google.hk, you'll get filtered results or failed searches.

If you're searching on google.hk from Canada, you'll get unfiltered results.

China doesn't give two shits about Google. It's really Google's lost on the Chinese market. That's it!

you can go to the .hk google with no problems. but if you are located in china, you won't be able to search properly due to the great firewall.

Unless this is a whole marketing scheme :O
Think about.. google gets the image of trying to help the peoples right in china...
People like us in Canada/US/Other countries... see this and may overall have a better image of the company..

Either way this goes.. i think google is winning a bit..

People who think this is an "American vs whatever country" issue is... I don't even know how else to respond.

Just bury your head in your ass, and keep it there please.

The PRC censoring information is just like mods on RS deleting threads,closing threads, and/or banning users because they are too controversial and they don't support their agenda.

What's the difference?

alot of ppl probably dont know that the US, Europe and Australia censors their internet too..

China censors information contain pornography and violent on the internet..I dont see whats wrong in that. Seeing how fucked up american kids are growing up, I think China has done good.

The computer's brand doesnt really matter..after all they are mostly manufacured by a few Taiwanese companies with factories in China...after all, its all the same if you bought from Asus, Acer, Sony, or HP, they are all made by Honhai and Quanta of Taiwan anyways.

of course there's is censorship to an extent..but the degree is nothing comparable to what china's doing

pornography and violence..that's a parents job not the governments.

edit: and please...there are fucked up younger generations regardless of culture. You get snobby mainlander kids who are neglected from their parents and the only form of love or attention comes in cash allowance

Why don't you move there then, you dumb cunt?

Then you can be around the WONDERFUL China kids, who grow up in their beautiful protected environment to become perfect citizens.

Just don't wallhack on them or you'll end up like this guy

so you are making personal insults now? just because others have a different opinion doesnt make it right to insult them. You are worse than censorship...you just a puny pile of shit who can only hide like a coward behind your computer desk..try getting an education, dont waste your parents money and our resources, better yet, move to europe since you hate mainlanders so much. too many of them here for you. Or even paint yourself white since you hate your heritage so much. worthless shit

I'll I'm going to do is laugh and watch him fail, as usual

Although I may follow his advice and paint myself white

And for the record, I don't hate mainlanders or have anything against the people of China. It's the country that is fucked, and the people are getting fucked. It's not their fault. I also hate religion, but many of my friends are religious. I don't hate them, and as long as they don't try to push their shit on me, I don't care that they're religious.

Isn't that censorship too?
