Googles Chinaproblem (und Chinas Googleproblem)

Gerade bei netzpolitik.org gefunden: Die New York Times schreibt über die Zensur die amerikanische Firmen in China ausüben. Ein relativ langer und lesenswerter Artikel über die aktuellen Zustände in China.

But as Lee and I talked about how the Internet was transforming China, he offered one opinion that seemed telling: the Chinese students he meets and employs, Lee said, do not hunger for democracy. "People are actually quite free to talk about the subject," he added, meaning democracy and human rights in China. "I don't think they care that much. I think people would say: 'Hey, U.S. democracy, that's a good form of government. Chinese government, good and stable, that's a good form of government. Whatever, as long as I get to go to my favorite Web site, see my friends, live happily.' "
