Google's Censorship in China

Seems Google's officials and former senior Chinese Communist party officials have different opinions on evil and censorship.

"Many, if not most, of you here know that one of Google's corporate mantras is 'Don't be evil.' " Mr. Schrage of Google said in his statement. "Some of our critics — and even a few of our friends — think that phrase arrogant, or naïve or both. It's not. It's an admonition that reminds us to consider the moral and ethical implications of every single business decision we make," the statement continued. "We believe that our current approach to China is consistent with this mantra."

"A group of former senior Communist party officials in China have launched a scathing attack on the country's handling of the media and information. In an open letter, the group denounced the recent closure of investigative newspaper Bingdian (Freezing Point). They said strict censorship may "sow the seeds of disaster" for China's political transition."
