My Way News - Google to step up anti-porn efforts in China
AP reports: "Google Inc. (GOOG) said Friday that it was working to block pornography reaching users of its Chinese service after a mainland watchdog found the search engine turned up large numbers of links to obscene and vulgar sites. [...] While the government claims the main targets are pornography, online gambling, and other sites deemed harmful to society, critics say that often acts as cover for detecting and blocking sensitive political content."

Comment: Shame on Google for kowtowing to the Chinese government.
