As you may guess, I am not a big fan of China and it’s policies against freedom. I will say that I have always been in the middle on the issue of us doing business with them. The idea that bringing a censored Internet to China is better than no Internet to China has always seemed to hold water with me. But it has always made me uneasy. While abstractly I understood, I knew that I couldn’t ever pander to China even for money.
So I have to say that I am really happy that Google won’t be pandering to China any more. They are “Reconsidering their approach to China”. I was already a Google fan and this has just furthered this fondness! So who is next? Microsoft? Yahoo?

Yay for Google!
