    Database, Published on 27/01/2010

    » Google announced that it has had it up to here with four solid years of Chinese censorship, and there is a very good chance it will simply pull out of the country that blackens the name of free speech; the Google announcement also lambasted China for the touchy subject of hacking email and document accounts - Google said the Chinese do it all the time, do it to Chinese and foreigners, and do it to individuals and companies including, recently, Adobe Systems; the announcement touched off a drama that will run weeks, likely more; former anti-Google advocates like Reporters Without Borders praised the search engine giant, but investors bailed on Google and started buying Baidu, the search company that helps and empowers the Chinese hacking and snooping; after all is done, Google may indeed finally begin living up to its promise to do no evil.

    The China syndrome

    Database, Published on 03/02/2010

    » US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton managed to put down China for big-hack attacks on Google and ruthless censorship, without once mentioning the word "China"; countries restrict the free flow of information, she sang to the choir at the Newseum in Washington, and "co-opted the Internet" to repress religion; a certain country should conduct a thorough investigation of the cyber intrusions against Google, and that certain country should make a public report; nut quote: "New technologies do not take sides in the struggle for freedom and progress, but the United States does."
