It's very hard to operate in China: Google
Mountain View: Following the recent hacking attacks on the search giant, Google's Co-founder Sergey Brin has said it has become "very hard to operate" in China, but he is optimistic Google can continue to "open up information for everyone everywhere, free of political censorship." "In the past couple of years, especially since the Olympics, the situation has gotten considerably worse on a variety of fronts," Brin told Reuters. On January 12, Google had announced that it would stop censoring Chinese search results, and said it was considering shutting down its operations in the country. Brin's comments are among the first by senior Google management on the issue since the announcement. He said that not only has information been omitted from the company's core search service in China, but also other Google products as well. "Other sites of ours, such as YouTube and Google Docs are blocked," Brin added.
