I'm from China and I just don't know how to refute your last line. Google has been blocked for about half a month now, but average people would not feel a thing

That's just sad.
- bx_ 12y agoBut that's not on account of brainwashing, that's could be on account of having no need for it. I've lived in China for 5 years and have survived without Google fine. Could also be that most young/modern Chinese have an apathetic split-mind: don't give a shit about Google and don't give a shit about who is blocking them from it or why. They aren't uninformed, they just don't care.
