Google.cn Has Already Lifted Censorship

An anonymous reader writes "In an update to Google's withdrawal from China, there are reports that censorship has already been lifted. It's probably taken a while to report because of Google's ranking system." Just a warning that the language on that blog post is NSFW but it does provide evidence.

    What /. needs to do is start censoring big walls of text.

    The Chinese need to learn that we will not do business with them until they clean up their human rights issues, implement better protection of IP, and stop being the dishonorable cheaters that they are.

    Google's expat employees are now out of China.

    Yeah I think the Chinese government will now cease all property that belongs to Google, send all employees to work camps, and then will start a full scale war on the US. I mean, what do they have to loose? When Google is gone, China will collapse anyway, so they might as well go with a good blast.

    No need to explain the term. He's probably away from his computer, being perp-walked to HR as I type.

    Will they need a seize and desist order?

    what do they have to loose?

    Nothing, it's clearly a tight situation.

    Oh come on now - Let's not have any of that reality crap here. Any time someone says something bad about China we are supposed to remind everyone how it is really the US that is bad. For example, you would say "China may have imprisoned an Australian guy, but look at the US: They don't give black people chicken McNuggets!" http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,504125,00.html

    Is any one working on this? With all the excess capacity in the hardware, a software upgrade is overdue. Seems like a viable product to me.

    The cost of that cleanup, of course, will be borne by taxpayers, not industry.
