As with poisonous foodstuffs, some things China thrusts upon us are toxic, and this is one of them. China is in essence trying to set Google's business practices policies. Uh-uh. I believe the appropriate reply is "Fuck that, and no, you can forget about profiting from your association with us." They must do what they have to to get out of that relationship, using lawyers, defensive technology and whatever else it takes. Google run by China, in principle or in actuality, is completely unacceptable. What China has already done IMHO comes damned close to an act of war.Steve Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07587223243120009776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872647804241988041.post-50944484284233358362010-01-15T00:31:46.919-06:002010-01-15T00:31:46.919-06:00I think Google is really PO'ed because they cu...I think Google is really PO'ed because they cut a deal with the Chinese government that cost them a lot of good will, and the Chinese have ignored it.<br /><br />I also think that Google is coming out because they know, not simply suspect, but know that the Chinese government hacked them. This would lead me to suspect that some of what happened led back to privileged accounts on Google's system that were given to the Chinese, i.e. the attacks came from inside the normal defenses. The attacks were also against resources that are separate and distinct from Google.cn. Google realizes that it can't trust the Chinese within its outer defenses, and the Chinese won't accept anything less.<br /><br />At this point, the Chinese operation has become a threat to Google worldwide, and no one can accept that.Bryanhttp://whynow.dumka.us/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872647804241988041.post-7409802106028978572010-01-14T16:05:56.500-06:002010-01-14T16:05:56.500-06:00Good (and scary) list, ellroon.
