AcidAUS writes "Google is being accused of refusing to remove racist blogs targeting minority groups in Australia. Google, whose corporate motto is "don't be evil", says it will take the blogs in question offline only if ordered to do so by a court."

    what would happen if a (google-based) Chinese blogger runs afoul of the Chinese Government?

    Will Google remove the blog?
    I don't expect slashdotters to read the fucking article. But at least read the fucking summary.
    Google ... says it will take the blogs in question offline only if ordered to do so by a court.
    Pretty easy to work out what they'd do in the case of China (especially given their past actions). But I'm guessing you just wanted to bash Google rather then have a serious discussion.
