No, I would not force liberty on anyone. As we have seen in Vietnam and Iraq, freedom must be earned by a people, not forced into their hands. You know how it is; no sandwich tastes better than the one you made yourself.

But, I'm not sure how "force" is involved. Were Google to live by a proper ethical code, it would not be "forcing" anything on anyone except the option to access it.

In truth, then, the only "force" involved here is, of course, the Chinese government, which forces its citizens to live under a fascist-communist state that jails, tortures, blackmails, censors, and executes them.
