Google China: Survival amidst Controversies
Launch of Google China
The world’s largest internet search engine company, Google Inc., serves the Chinese mainland through its subsidiary, Google China. In 2005, Google China was founded with a Chinese language interface of the original Google.com to better serve its own country. The following year, Google launched the Google.cn search page and was programmed in such a way to give search results that would abide by censorship laws stated by the Chinese Government. Even though Google is known to be the internet search giant in other parts of the world, it ranks second in China to the home grown internet search site Baidu.
Journey since its inception
Google’s four year tenure in China hasn’t been that smooth. After announcing its intent to comply with internet censorship laws in the People’s Republic of China, Google China became a focus of controversy. In an effort to play a role in facilitating free speech, Google complied with censorship laws to participate in China’s IT industry. Had Google not complied, the Internet giant couldn’t have made it to the biggest internet market in the world.
The Controversy Series
Controversies started in March of 2009 when access to Google’s YouTube site was blocked in China. Since then other Google online services have been continuously blocked to users on an ad hoc basis.
This past January, Google announced its unpleasant experience of being hacked along with many other US tech companies in China prompting the Internet mogul to no longer censor searches in China as well as a potential pull out of the country.
What happened on March 23, 2010 was even more striking. Google began to redirect all search queries from Google.cn to Google.com.hk. (Google Hong Kong), which bypasses Chinese regulatory laws and allows uncensored Simplified Chinese search results. Hong Kong is vested with independent judicial power and is not subject to most Chinese laws, and they are also not required to follow the restriction of the free flow of information and censorship of internet materials.
David Drummond, senior vice president of Google, stated that the stringent censorship on internet information in China led Google to make such a decision. Hong Kong comparably enjoys a higher level of freedom of speech and expression, and google.com.hk does not need to censor search results. This creates a much more effective networking and information sharing experience for internet users in China.
He also mentioned that other internet services from Google such as Gmail are available to users in China. Google also planned to continue with the research and development offices in China along with the sales offices for other Google products such as Android smartphone software.
March 30, 2010, marked a significant day in the history of the company as searching with any Google search site – including Google Mobile – was banned in China. Google Mail and Google Maps remained unaffected. A statement from Xiao Qiang, director of the China Internet Project at UC Berkeley and founder of the China Digital Times, said it was noted that Chinese Government can block all access to Google sites and application if they thought the services were violating the regulatory and censorship laws. The ban was lifted after a day.
On June 30, Google finally tried to end the feud by stopping automatic redirects of Google China to Google Hong Kong. Instead, links to Google Hong Kong were applied to avoid getting their Internet Content Provider (ICP) license revoked.
Service by Google in China
After much controversy about Google’s license renewal in China, Google Inc. surprised people with its announcement that Chinese authorities renewed its license to operate a website with the understanding that Google would stop redirecting users of Google.cn to the Hong Kong site.
Google users in China do not enjoy a standard service as Google.com appears to be down around 10 percent of the time. Google’s current search business in China accounts to $24 billion in annual revenue, with analysts putting its annual China revenue at $300-$400 million. Long-term growth prospects are easily the most important.
Google intends to abide by the Chinese censorship laws since China is the world’s largest internet market with nearly 400 million users. Other firms like eBay and Yahoo! have tried to cash in on China’s immense potential only to rethink their ideas.
China is expected to play a major role in other Internet sectors like social-networking, e-commerce and online gaming. It was evident that smart business strategy like the one Google used would not keep itself away from the potential market along with making it the one that is expected to be the largest in the field.

The Power of the Internet in China by Yang, Guobin Edition , 0 $26.99 Since the mid-1990s, the Internet has revolutionized popular expression in China, enabling users to organize, protest, and influence public opinion in unprecedented ways. Guobin Yang's pioneering study maps an innovative range of contentious forms and practices linked to Chinese cyberspace, delineating a nuanced and dynamic image of the Chinese Internet as an arena for creativity, community, conflict, and control. Like many other contemporary protest forms in China and the world, Yang argues, Chinese online activism derives its methods and vitality from multiple and intersecting forces, and state efforts to constrain it have only led to more creative acts of subversion. Transnationalism and the tradition of protest in China's incipient civil society provide cultural and social resources to online activism. Even Internet businesses have encouraged contentious activities, generating an unusual synergy between commerce and activism. Yang's book weaves these strands together to create a vivid story of immense social change, indicating a new era of informational politics. |

A Million Words and Counting: How Global English Is Rewriting the World $13.95 Spread the Word! What’s all the tamasha about global English? What makes it so robust? What accounts for its traction? Is it due to some kind of viral marketing or data migration? Or is English simply the best of breed among the world’s many languages? In the new world, over1.35 billion people now speak English. It’s been outsourced to India where 350 million people speak their own variant, Hinglish (fundoo, propone), and to China where 250 million people speak Chinglish (no noising, drinktea). It gets new words virtually every day from every corner of the world and every facet of human existence—from politics (locavore, punditocracy), entertainment (truthiness, brokeback), youth culture (crunk, word!), corporate culture (multitask, scalable), science and technology (quantum, nanotechnology), and the Internet (blogosphere, ROTFLOL). In fact, English is expected to reach the one million-word mark this year, according to WordMan Paul J.J. Payack. Join him as he takes you on a whirlwind tour of this truly global language, from the realms of the serious (bandwith, subprime) to the less serious (bootylicious, wikiality). Maybe this journey will inspire you to coin some new words of your own. |
