I imagine the romantic notion of making a mound of money clouded Google's vision like bad beer goggles and a regretful one nighter with someone who's name escapes you. Google woke up next to a gnarly girl with bad breath and big hair. Having regret is ok, we all make mistakes. Time will tell if Google has learned from their late night adventure, sipping on the CHICOM juice.
China censorship damaged us, Google founders admit
Google's decision to censor its search engine in China was bad for the company, its founders admitted yesterday.
Sergey Brin and Larry Page, was accused of selling out and reneging on its "Don't be evil" motto when it launched in China in 2005. The company modified the version of its search engine in China to exclude controversial topics such as the Tiananmen Square massacre or the Falun Gong movement, provoking a backlash in its core western markets.
Last year in a speech in Washington Mr Brin admitted the company had been forced to compromise its principles to operate in China.
