Major kudos to Google. This is an outstanding outcome.
We want to make clear that this move was driven by our executives in the United States, without the knowledge or involvement of our employees in China who have worked incredibly hard to make Google.cn the success it is today.
How sad that they had to specify this, or a few of their Chinese employees would risk their freedom, or worst, their lives.
- nfnaaron 17y agoThey probably risk questioning, regardless. Google execs did what they could, a good thing.
- romland 17y agoWhat I read between the lines there was: "We have the feeling that this might have been made possible due to an inside job by one or more of our employees in China. However, we don't know who or to what extent and we'd rather not do our dirty laundry in public." Call me cynical. :/
- houseabsolute 17y agoDunno why you consider that cynical. It's just realistic, and it wouldn't even indicate bad faith on Google's part or anyone else's if that was the reason under the covers.
