We've talked a lot in class about how China is changing. Here is another example. Because China is a communist country, they censor much of the information that the public has access to, meaning people in China don't have access to all information. They only see what the Chinese government allows them to see. As of today at about 3:00 pm ET, Google announced that it has stopped censoring the Internet in China. Google is no longer obeying the Chinese government and people in China now have access to information that they could never see before. Who knows, they might be reading this blog right now. It will be interesting to see how the communist Chinese government responds to this event.
