Google Stands Ground on Google.cn

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the testify dept.

nmccart writes "Google gave testimony on Friday to the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on International Relations. They discussed their decision to build google.cn in China. Elliot Schrage, the vice president for global communications and public affairs at Google describes how these China-based servers fit in to Google's mantra of 'Don't be evil.' Google hopes to use this as an opportunity to help bring global censorship into the spotlight of American politics. Will it work?"

    Thanks, but we've all seen Google China's tiananmen search vs The US version

    However it's interesting to note that something censored in the US is censored all over the world

    Not comparing what's been censored. Just where.
