"There's an interesting dynamic between Google and China," Jaron Lanier, the Internet philosopher and author of the new book You Are Not a Gadget, said last night after a talk at the 92nd Street Y. "The Chinese Communist Party would like to be the central place where everybody has to move through to move communication. The reason the Communist Party wants to do that is both for power purposes but also to control what is said. They want to control reality traditionally. Obviously this is a bad program and we'd like them not to succeed in that.
"But on the other hand... Google also wants to be the single node through which everybody has to connect. Their purpose is to sell advertising. But in a sense the style of power they want does have some overlap with what the Chinese want. And so they're in a unique position of wanting to compete in a somewhat similar way." READ MORE ...

If the word GOOGLE does not immediately bring up the reality of this corporation functioning for globalist business interests - such as the gigantic porn industry, but also for the military-government-banking complex in gathering information about each individual in the populous - you need to increase your knowledge base regarding this 'search engine'.
This is very similar to also perceiving that the NSA was working with Microsoft in the development of your Windows operating system - if you think ANYTHING you do on your computer is 'private' ... that is just what they want you to falsely believe.

Inappropriate to play up Google China's withdrawal threat
Liu Si BEIJING, Jan. 15 (Xinhua) -- Discussions included China's web environment, the China-U.S. trade relationship, and others. But it's inappropriate to play up the issue, or turn it into a political one.
Google's corporate development and chief legal officer, David Drummond, posted a statement Tuesday on the company's official blog, saying it was "reviewing the feasibility of our business operations in China."
According to the statement, the disputes with the Chinese government on Internet regulation and major cyber attacks on his company allegedly originated from China have forced Google to consider exiting.
For overseas businesses, including Google, they should respect laws and regulations as well as relevant policies of their host countries, which is a standard international practice for multinational companies.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu said Thursday at a regular press conference that "China welcomes international Internet companies to conduct business within the country according to law."
The world Internet giant has been blamed by the Chinese government for showing too many links to pornographic contents in its search results and thus breaking the Chinese law.
Currently, Google is also handling a case with Chinese writers over online books copyright disputes.
According to a list provided by Google at the end of 2009, its on-line library involves some 80,000 categories of Chinese books, 10 percent of which were works of 2,600 members of the Chinese Writers Association.
On the other hand, cyber attacks are a commonplace issue across the globe even if countries have been making every effort to combat hackers.
"China's law prohibits cyber crimes including hacker attacks," Jiang said
On Tuesday, China's largest Internet search engine Baidu, which is also Google's major rival in the Chinese market, suffered an hacker attack that paralyzed its website for more than three hours.
Microsoft's CEO Steve Ballmer has said that "There are attacks every day ...We're attacked every day from all parts of the world and I think everybody else is too. We didn't see anything out of the ordinary."
So it's far-fetched to blame China as a scapegoat for cyber attacks just because Google said something about that....
Baidu, Google Rival in China, Financed by Americans Friday, January 15, 2010
If Google does pull out of China, it will yield its 36% market share to rival Baidu, a Chinese Internet portal and search service that’s not as “home grown” as Beijing claims. Baidu got to where it is today, controlling 58% of the Chinese Net search world, thanks to investments from American banks and venture capitalists.
