Quite possible the worst thing anything could do is even remotely point a gun at china, they are probably the only the country in the world that could conquer everyone...at once.
Imagine the shit that's going to go down with the Chinese public if it becomes uncensored.
google probably has hidden missile silos in the ocean ready to fire at china
honestly, china needs to calm the fuck down.
row row, fight da powah
I bet china is going to either sue google, Block google, or send terrorist attacks at google HQ
Whatever the outcome, I hope China doesn't get their way and if anything, regrets their choices/words/threats
Chill out china
And i thought the cencorship in Australia was bad...
[QUOTE=POLOPOZOZO;20766934]I like how Google sounds like a sovereign nation in this article.[/QUOTE]
Considering how much influence they have and how much they're spreading themselves out, they basically [I]already are [/I]a sovereign nation.
[QUOTE=Swim;20766724]fight the power, google[/QUOTE]

It's their loss, actually

[QUOTE=ChestyMcGee;20767044]I don't understand why China is so fucking bothered. If they're so eager to maintain their censorship, which they are, can't the government just set up some sort of nation-wide or even international search engine with all the censorship they want? They're treating Google like a world superpower here.[/QUOTE]
Because it's worth over 100 Billion. [b]BILLION[/b]
China are making threats, but Google is all: [img]http://imgkk.com/i/eHD2lF.png[/img]
[QUOTE=lulzbocks;20767768]And people say America has bad civil rights...[/QUOTE]
They do.
How's china going to attack google?
there are no consequences.
China sets up a massacre at one of their airports, and makes it look like Google did it.
"Now nobody's gonna' say a word when the Chinese club every Google user they can reach."

It already is.
[QUOTE=SomeRandomGuy18;20792470]It already is.[/QUOTE]
If it gets removed completely, though, multiply it by 1000.
Wouldn't be surprised if we see riots, even civil war.
Chinese Google should get hosted just right outside the border, so China can't do anything but cry moar.
