2 things: Google does censor youtube - via responding to user complaints. And I bet Google /could/ censor the rest if it wanted to. And doesn't it already, anyway, for China?
But then if not, who would lose more, Google + Facebook or India?
- Slimy 15y agoNot really. Google gave up on censoring search results in China and simply moved its operations to Hong Kong (http://arstechnica.com/microsoft/news/2010/02/googles-china-problem-leaves-opening-for-bing-in-china.ars http://arstechnica.com/microsoft/news/2010/02/googles-china-...). China blocks websites that don't follow its rules. India is threatening to do something similar. From this article: "Like China, we too can block such websites," said Justice Suresh Kait.
- kmfrk 15y agoGoogle is back in China, but it looks like they are somehow not censoring themselves there: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970203436904577155003097277514.html?mod=WSJ_Tech_LEADTop http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000142405297020343690457715....
