For someone who don't know the background: Google has one of the best porn filter mechanism and the SafeSearch option cannot be turn off in mainland China. Since Kaifu Lee become the head of Google China, Google pulls tons of money to maintain government guanxi. Today, China Central Television (CCTV) made a special coverage to accuse that Google China have assisted porn propagation by made links to foreign porn sites.

It's totally political. Google provided search results when everyone else is shuting down during 4th June. And one core member of isc.org.cn is Baidu.com, Google's largest rival. Baidu bribed China's CCTV with a lot of money this year, especially during the Spring Festival TV Programs. One thing about free macket is very sad in capitalist China, there's no fucking business model, everything depends on politics model, even underground politics model. Update: Something is going on here This is the Search suggest for 'Son' in Chinese http://suggestqueries.google.com/complete/search?hl=zh-CN&jsonp=window.google.ac.hr&q=%E5%84%BF%E5%AD%90 http://suggestqueries.google.com/complete/search?hl=zh-CN&#3... This is the search suggest for 'lol' in Chinese http://suggestqueries.google.com/complete/search?hl=zh-CN&jsonp=window.google.ac.hr&q=%E5%91%B5%E5%91%B5 http://suggestqueries.google.com/complete/search?hl=zh-CN&#3... looks like a malicious Google Suggest hack and someone purposly reported it to the national TV

I don't know what's going on with this recent accusation. Here is what I do know: I am sitting in Shanghai as I write this and can easily search google and find porn links. Today, while looking for something that clearly wasn't porn, I was presented with google ads at the top of the search results for prostitution.
