Google's Fond Farewell

[Strathy]

I am truly honoured to be Pope to this god! All hail google, the son Google chrome & the holy programmer. Burn the heretics of Bing

[Sarzonia]

Google's flipping China the bird as it leaves.

How classy.

[The Republic of Lanos]

stupid google

Let me guess, you support the oppression of free speech and thought?
Google had enough when someone tried to hack Gmail accounts of anti-communist Chinese advocates.

I support Google, no matter how evil it was.

[Birnadia]

stupid google

I think you'll find this is proof of how awesome Google is, actually.

[New Manvir]

:rofl:

Maurepas supports this measure,

Risottia supports this measure, too. Humour wars... holy shit, the Brits would be unstoppable!

It's the ultimate weapon.

Monty Python is a Weapon of Mass Destruction, it's use should be prohibited under the Geneva Conventions

Google hardly deserves a bit of praise. Google for years supported and actively participated in the Chinese governments repression of free speech and political dissent. Google is currently cooperating with governments around the world in setting up similar abilities to censor the web. Google is one of the most onerous and intrusive businesses on the web when it comes to privacy.

Oh my god, I can really see how Google is now turning the tide towards free speech, even though it still says "According to local laws, regulations and policies, some search results are not shown". I can also observe that The Epoch Times, very critical of the government, is also in the results.

[SoWiBi]

Apparently google.co doesn't want me to rebel against the PRC.

Fuck the whole "Google participating in Chinese-mandated censoring" issues, what I'm much more intrigued by is your own little blackening-out here, dear Iffy ;P

[Antilon]

Until I see some official "Fuck you PRC, with Love from Google," this is pretty shady, about as shady as google's cooperation with certain authoritarian governments on censorship.

[Letat]

Woe be to China, having provoked the wrath of the laaaaawd GOOGLE!

[Arumdaum]

I can't read Chinese, but no wonder Google is taking over the world, with a sense of humor like this...

Aren't you supposed to be learning Hanja?

I can read Jung-guk both simplified and traditional.....

[Pope Joan]

Will Australia be the next to prefer censorship over web search access?

as of the 15th of this month Google had been forced to take down some "offensive" websites (those who had complained were applauded here for their heroism http://icnn.com.au/breaking-news/stephe ... y-limited/)

[Hindopia]

Made me laugh really hard.
Chinese people eat babies eh? Well, if google says it, it must be true.

Yes I am, but being "supposed to be learning Hanja" doesn't mean I actually do study it.

[Christmahanikwanzikah]

Apparently google.co doesn't want me to rebel against the PRC.

No, it just wants to get you flash porn and Chinese brides... nothing out of the ordinary.

Way to cover up the link to (redacted), too.

[Gauntleted Fist]

Fuck, yeah, Zero Punctuation!

NO! YOU WILL FAIL SCHOOL! GET BACK TO STUDYING!

Nah, it's ok. It's weird how barely any hanja is used anymore.

[Helgrin]

LOL... type "French military victories" and then press the second of the two search buttons

That reminds me of what happens if you type in "hahahahahahahahahahahaha" and then hit "I'm Feeling Lucky".

[Alsatian Knights]

Yeah funny but unlikely to be actual google employees doing this but rather google bombers.

I almost forgot about google bombing. Damn you. That really brought me down.

type in "Find Chuck Norris" and click on I'm Feeling Lucky

[New Hayesalia]

Google versus the PRC...a truly epic confrontation

Now add Chuck Norris, Samuel L. Jackson and McDonalds.

[Charlotte Ryberg]

I really don't believe it. Only a few weeks ago, Amnesty International (in chinese: 國際特赦組織) used to be censored from its results. Now it is top of the list.

The brits aren't funny

[Grandais]

Many people, myself included, would disagree.

[Lelouche]

They would also be wrong
