chinese google

Google has officially launched it's new search engine in China, although not without widespread criticism.
Reporters sans Frontiers have been particularly outspoken on the topic.

Chinese searchers will be barred from accessing information on topics such as democracy and the Tiananmen Square masacre of '89.

To their credit, Google does censor themselves and inform users when access to information has been restricted - in contrast to other $ hungry corp beasts like Yahoo and Msoft.
However, I reckon it's a small concession to a huge compromise.

I'm writing Google a letter - I still haven't heard back from Yahoo.
