Google Mirror Beats the Great Firewall of China

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the let-the-whacamole-commence dept.

An anonymous reader writes "TheNew Scientist has an article about a Google search mirror called elgooG that apparently beats the Chinese firewall to the outside world. It displays all of the text backwards, requiring you to use a mirror to read the text." No big shocker- but imagine how many such mirrors could exist ;)

    That's great it displays text backwards and all, but mirrors don't reverse the order text. Make yourself a nice big "R" and hold it in front of a mirror. See the difference?

    If you use a mirror to read this google mirror you are going to see the letters in the right order, but they are all going to be backwards!
