Google Asks US For WTO Block On China Censorship

Posted by Soulskill on from the calling-in-the-bantam-artillery dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Google is asking the US government to petition the World Trade Organization to recognize China's censorship as an unfair barrier to trade. The US Trade Representative is reviewing their petition to see if they can prove that China's rules discriminate against foreign competition. At least it's something worthwhile for the US Trade Reps to do, rather than secretly negotiating ACTA."

    Are you saying they were unhappy when they did it or that they didn't do it? Because the former may be possible (if meaningless), but the latter is undeniable.
