Google to continue investing in China
Websites of organisations deemed by China’s ruling Communist Party to be hostile to the nation — such as the Epoch Times, Peacehall and groups supporting the Tiananmen Democracy Movement -- were all still blocked. Popular websites such as Google's video-sharing service YouTube were also still inaccessible from Beijing despite the re-routing through Google.com.hk. The same searches on Google.com.hk from computers in Hong Kong displayed full results -- suggesting that China was itself using its "Great Firewall" of web censorship to keep users from having unfettered Internet access. Google's action came two months after it said it had been the victim of cyberattacks originating from China and warned it could leave the country, but it said Tuesday it was "business as usual" at the Beijing headquarters. Google has said it plans to maintain its sales, research and development teams in China, which has the world's largest online population at 384 million. China however had swiftly denounced the move, saying Google had "violated its written promise" and was "totally wrong" to stop censoring its Chinese language search engine and to blame Beijing for alleged hacker attacks.
