Google on China

While China has been trying to be as technology-advanced as any other country in China, it has been prone to theft and many other scary crimes. When somebody attacked China on their Google sites, google.cn, the United States began to take notice and rethink their strategy about trying to do business with China, based on their products. Although China's government was infuriated with the U.S.'s process to change China, the U.S. still decided to take action on their turf anyway. Now, after the attack, the U.S. is shutting down their link for China. This might be good and it might be good. For the good part, it might stop the thefts and link thefts in the China search engine. However, for the bad part, people who live in China who want the information that is acquired off of Google, might now not be able to get all of the information that Google users in America and other countries might have. But I feel it is a good issue to prevent petty crimes from happening over the Internet in other countries. It might be down for a while, but I think it is the safest and the best thing to do at this point in time.
