Ugh, I think you're confusing Google with Facebook. Google had a highly contentious relationship with China, and were forced to pull out in a lot of ways. China staged a giant attack on them in January 2010. In that year there was much attention to how Facebook acquiesced to China, and agreed to censor, and Google wouldn't. China worked with Facebook and considered Google their enemy. I think you are confused

Google vs. China

Google originally was in league with the Chinese and acquiesced to their demands for censorship on Chinese search engines.

I know they left in a huff, but I hate ‘em for approaching the Chicoms to start with.

We need to boycott and economically isolate the Chinese, not sleep with them.

No business with China, period.

And that includes dog food and cheap TVs.
