I Due Imperi – Milan Exhibition

Wednesday, January 13th, 2010Google Inc. posted a stunning blog on Tuesday, announcing cyber attacks and censorship were forcing the Internet giant to consider shutting down its website and offices in China.
Thousands of blogspots, search results and websites, including Google’s video-sharing site YouTube, remain inaccessible in China as the communist leadership tries to prevent social discontent against its rule from spreading through online data and opinions.
Facebook and Twitter are still blocked since ethnic riots erupted in northwest Xinjiang last July.
When Google launched in China in 2006, the company agreed to limit content under Chinese censorship rules, but could not effectively compete with China’s top search engine Baidu that will gain most from its exit.
