Google Clash Highlights How China Does Business
Google Clash Highlights How China Does Business
By Byron Acohido, Calum MacLeod and Kathy Chu

Google's (GOOG) recent threat to pull out of China has brought into sharp
relief China's longstanding clampdown on personal freedoms and foreign
companies' access to its vast consumer market. It has continued these
practices even as it revs up the capitalist-style advance of the world's
fastest-growing economy.
In China, domestic "stability" is paramount. That means zero tolerance for
political dissent at a time when Chinese consumers are being encouraged to
embrace technologies that let them communicate and socialize much like
their Western counterparts. Similarly, China has invited major tech
players, such as Google, Microsoft and Yahoo, to help nurture its economic
growth. Yet it imposes censorship and other restrictions and has paid
little heed to intellectual-property rights.
Analysts say this is all part of China's drive to develop and become the
dominant supplier to the world's most populous consumer-driven economy,
with information technology as a major component. "The government in China
is determined to exercise some control over mass media and the Internet,"
says Harvard law professor Jonathan Zittrain. "The aim is to keep the
average Internet user pointed away from controversial content and towards
approved content."
Until Google dug its heels in, China Inc. seemed to have all the cards
stacked in its favor. On Jan. 11, the search giant issued a statement
complaining about invasive cyberattacks and demanding that China back off
on censorship of Google's search results. "This is the first time a big
company like Google has stood up and said, 'I have had enough of this,' "
says Hu Yong, a Beijing-based new-media expert.
