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.

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..

^ Microsoft can leave...that doesn't stop the pirating anyway.
Dell can leave as well, two weeks later China will have a new company called "Nell" building computers.

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.

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

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.

Skinnypupp you still haven't answered me about RS mods deleting threads, closing threads and banning people.
Isn't that censorship too?
