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.

By the way, on what grounds does the chinese authorities want to fight porn ?
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...

This is the search suggest for 'lol' in Chinese http://suggestqueries.google.com/complete/search?hl=zh-CN...

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.
There's a ancient saying in Chinese: 欲加之罪何患无辞

It means an interest group is growing very fast in China, eventually it will kidnap all personal and national politisc, economics, culture with its monopolization.

"Freedom, democracy and smut can go hand in hand."

All governments just use porn as an excuse to "parenting" their own citizens. But if citizens can't judge issues by themselves, why do we need democracy and rule of laws? If citizens can't judge issues themselves, how can government officials be better in the same department? The difference is who has the power. And some people really take the power in their hands to serious.

We as human being tends to be corrupted with power at our own little hands. The only way to get the balance is to allow different groups owns mutual destruction power against each other, therefore we will all be civilized and enjoy the peace among ourselves.
