Google changes its approach to China
In a change of their current policy of providing filtered content in China, Google has decided to stand against the Chinese government and remove all filters on their search results. The reason mentioned for their policy change was a grave web-based attack against the accounts of human rights leaders.
I think that this is a honorable decision, and all free countries should support such an initiative that aims at making the web more democratic. After all, I think that if we can’t make the whole world a democratic place, we can at least try to do the right thing with use of technology.
