As the above article states, China is doing just fine. Owning the most of the debt that US has taken to fund it's military campaigns.
Maybe the fact that US can now take away domains from their owners with a court order, is already worse than anything than Chinese could do. At least to us Europeans. It's not OUR court that is ordering it.

Submission + - Google Italy execs convicted over YouTube video (bbc.co.uk)

Submitted by FTWinston on Wednesday February 24, 2010 @06:05AM

FTWinston writes: Three Google exectives have been convicted of privacy violations in Italy over the contents of a YouTube video showing a boy with Downs syndrome being bullied — despite the fact that the video was removed as soon as it was brought to their attention, and that Google assisted the authorities in locating those who posted it. Prosecutors argued that Google should have sought the consent of all parties involved with the video before allowing it to go online. Quite how they were meant to achieve this is another matter.
