They are treading thin ice.
"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"
I'm glad they are standing up and taking the high road. Still, no need to be stupid.

(FWIW, some reports say Google.cn already is uncensored, which may be against the law. Thus the staff could be at risk.)
