Google Pulling out of China?



As Google begins to uncensor its the web in China through its Hong Kong base, and has been met with resistance from the Chinese government. The government had repeatedly hacked the browsing giant to try and find the emails of radical groups inside the country. Once Google found out they soon mobilized against the world's largest country, threatening to pull out. And it seems inevitable that they soon will as the country's and browsing giants relations have quickly deteriorated. Only time will tell in this historic confrontation.
