The most famous search engine in the world, Google wants to end the 8-year boycott. The company's management wants to return to China. This decision only means the mono-tech giant yields to Beijing's pressure. 

"Don't be evil"

When Sergei Brin and Larry Page assumed Google their motto was "Don't be evil". This slogan has been placed high in every step the company has taken for a long time. These words were also the reason for refusing to make a censored version of the search engine Googlethat would appear in China. The situation happened in 2010, and 8 years later, the same gentlemen change their decision.

Global protest by Google employees

The project, which assumes that searched data by people in China, is displayed according to the guidelines of the country's authorities and be politically censored appropriately, does not appeal to a very large number of Google employees. Before the weekend, an online letter was published, which is an open letter of protest of the employees of the above-mentioned companies. In just a few days as much as 693 people signed it. It turns out that not only employees Google, but also respected journalists in the world pay attention to the fairly large problem of human rights violations. Amnesty International joins the case. Unfortunately, the company's management is silent and so far has not responded to the growing rumors in this matter.

Google does not confirm

Some time ago, The Intercept website published information that, under unknown circumstances, was leaked from Google. These messages report that the search engine Google, which would appear in China, will block some words and phrases, and in addition, the Chinese authorities will have total control over what people are looking for there. Management Google it does not confirm the truthfulness of the project, but neither does it deny it.

Business with China

Chinese legislation is very different from many other countries. The reason for this is that anyone who does business with this country must conform to its basic principles and values.
