I agree with Najaf.
I don't agree at all with China's censorship, but it is the law in their country, and you need to obey the law in order to operate there.
What upsets me - and prehaps it shouldn't - is that faced with its first difficult moral decision Google took the easy route out. Who's morals are you talking about here? What you consider moral may be highly immoral to someone else. Each country has to decide for itself what constitutes morality for them. This means that each country, and even different regions in the same country, will have different ideas. To condemn a multi-national corporation for obeying the laws of the country in which it is working sounds pretty irrational to me.

China covers thing up so people don't get upset but it always come out in the end. Not in China. Since all of the media sources are closely controlled by the government, how do you figure that it "always comes out in the end?" The rest of the world may know but the Chinese people won't, and that's the reason for the government's censorship.
