Google to Stop Censoring Search Results in China After Hack Attack
Found on Wired News on Tuesday, 12 January 2010
Google has decided to stop censoring search results in China, after discovering that someone based in that country had attempted to hack into the e-mail accounts of human rights activists.
Shortly after Google disclosed the hack, Adobe posted its own announcement disclosing that it became aware on Jan. 2 that it had been targeted in a "sophisticated, coordinated attack against corporate network systems managed by Adobe and other companies."
Drop the filters, pull Yahoo into the boat too and let China come up with a "solution" to this (which will most likely be a total block). It's about time that China learns that a censoring dictatorship can't survive as a global player.
