Google has announced that search results in google.cn are no longer censored. Hopefully, they will keep up that policy, which is great news for everyone who believes in the importance of the freedom of information, and everyone who fears the outcomes of the policy other large corporations have taken, which argues that limited information is better than none.
It should be noted that the solution chosen by Google seems like the one chosen for appearing as the least dangerous for Chinese employee of Google who might be accused or charged for the implementation of the new policy.
This is ofcourse not a foolproof step. China can block access to google.cn, as a result of this brave decision, and might even undermine Google's other operations in the huge Chinese market.
It is rare in our world to see a corporation making a moral step. I'm proud to be a google user today.
