With one of the largest markets domination in China is what every international company wants. It seems Google’s chance at least for the foreseeable future has come to an end due to limitations placed on them by Chinese Censors.
Since January Google has been redirecting Google.cn to Google.com.hk to bridge the difference in content availability that Chinese users want. Unfortunately their Content Provider License is up for renewal on June 30th and they have been informed that it will not be renewed.
Without the content provider license Google’s main site and their other international locations will be banned in China.
Sometimes you just have to stand your ground and lets face it the owners of Google have enough money to retire and go live on any beach they want to buy… not that they would want to live on a beach because it would screw up their laptop … but at least for now they are accepting that this is one battle they don’t want to win if it means they have to compromise their values…
GEES CAN YOU IMAGINE?
Maybe they should run for Office…
Anyway WANGle.com is already taken so we won’t be opening our chinese search engine…
