Google's China Problem

Wraithfighter writes "The New York Times has a rather lengthy, but informative, piece on the origins of Google's current Chinese search engine, as well as a very informative look at how censoring is actually done in China. From the article: 'Are there gradations of censorship, better and worse ways to limit information? In America, that seems like an intolerable question -- the end of the conversation. But in China, as Google has discovered, it is just the beginning.'"

    China just wants to steal Google's search technology. China will try to steal anything, and everything. Maybe we will see Choogle, China's alternative to Google made with Google's code, just a different graphic.

    China want's to be like Microsoft now?

    You don't often hear about a country wanting to take after a corperations buisness model.
