• Is Google getting cojones in China?

    Posted on March 18, 2010 at 08:57 CDT by • Comment in the Forums

    News from MSNBC that Google is finally showing some previously-blocked pictures in response to searches on Google.cn.

    A week ago, the Financial Times reported that Google wass “99.9% certain” to close down its censored Chinese search engine.  Now, it appears as if the engine is still chugging along, with some of the old censorship gone.

    It’s refreshing to see pictures of the “tank man” at Tiananmen Square, and a tiny trickle of information about Tibet, coming from the censored version of Google.

    In response, Google’s stock took a hit, but it’s coming back. Good on ya, Google.
