That was a pretty funny (insightful) summary; definitely noted. And, I'm guessing that WinMo7 is going to follow suit soon enough.

This is just going to be a back and forth thing. I don't think this battle over censorship is going to go anywhere. Google is losing it's China market, and, well, China is still going to be censoring everything.

I would have thought that other countries would be against having a random rail line running through their land.

Definitely know a couple of friends at Microsoft who Google and use Gmail =)

Heh; I know some friends in China at BING, and it seems like their doors are wide open to take on any Google China employees who are looking for a job.

From my experience with contributing to Wikipedia, and from reading some of the talkback (is that what they're called?) discussions, I don't think there's much need for such a tool; there seems to be an elite class of Wiki users that delete anything that they deem unworthy while giving the most bizarre reasons for doing so.

This seems like a pretty ridiculous move to consider opensource on the same level as piracy. Totally unrelated issues at hand here.

True; pressure from the FBI probably had a large part behind this- either way, I hope that China will continue to cooperate with other countries in cracking down with counterfeits. China has to start cleaning up.
