[When a cartoon threatens your control on power so much you have to censor it, you’ve already got one foot in the grave.]


Lese majeste was a capital crime through most of the world’s history. Dynastic longevity has varied, but the vast majority of man’s existence has been spent under the grip of one absolute ruler or another. We have another century to go before we match the tenure of China’s last de jure imperial clan.

Yup.

So will Google comply with Chinese censors? Would love to see a case of South Park creators vs Google in court.
