I’m glad to see that compliance with local law is now beneath Google.

I concur with you sargon ...

Very powerful image. Iconic. A lone wolf resisting a multi tank column. Certain death. Unwavering.

One of my favourite images of the “Human Spirit”. Sadly, in today’s times, the youth of China have all but downplayed the uprising back in the Spring of 1989. Money talks now. Not truth.

Google is doing the correct thing. Should have stuck to their guns and not compromised back when they dipped their metaphorical toe into the waters of Chinese geopolitical / Internet culture. Money won out then, now, it is just an outgoing poke in the eye to the Chinese regime.

Good for Google.

T Square "Tank Man" (pic 01)
Original iconic image of the "Tank Man".

T Square "Tank Man" (pic 02)
Rarely seen image of the "Tank Man" taken at ground level just prior to the iconic series of photos / video were captured. In this image, "Tank Man" can be viewed in the mid upper left portion of the photo, just to the right side of the left shoulder of the individual running directly at the camera with the light blue / light white button down shirt opened at the collar. "Tank Man" can be seen from the rear profile (wearing a white shirt / black pants with a satchel in each hand) standing in the middle of the boulevard as the tank column approaches (off to the upper right side of the photo).

Doesn’t look it with that tight waistband, although for some the boobs are the first thing to grow. She’s attractive, it’s just a funny effect created by a too-tight bra.

Google finally grows up and grows a pair!

(this liberal-infested company learned the hard way...)
