Going along with our discussion in class today, I found this YouTube clip on Google's censorship in China. It's pretty interesting to think that the Chinese government can censor hits on Google, yet a Chinese man sued Yahoo and Google for erasing his name. It is interesting to see two different sides of the story. I am starting to realize that Google, though it is a major fixture in the Web, may not be so "free" and open to the public.
Hmm.....
