Alex Hern and agencies, The Guardian; Google 'working on censored search engine' for China
"The Chinese human rights community said Google acquiescing to China’s censorship would be a “dark day for internet freedom”.
“It is impossible to see how such a move is compatible with Google’s
‘Do the right thing’ motto, and we are calling on the company to change
course,” said Patrick Poon, China Researcher at Amnesty International.
“For the world’s biggest search engine to adopt such extreme measures
would be a gross attack on freedom of information and internet freedom.
In putting profits before human rights, Google would be setting a
chilling precedent and handing the Chinese government a victory."
