I have the same view. They will try to deflect any blame for any attack on western corporations. They might raise a stink for a little bit. It will be interesting to see what happens to google, if they close up shop or raid the google data center. On Wed, Jan 13, 2010 at 2:12 PM, iamnowonmai <iamnowonmai at gmail.com> wrote:
Like it or not they need us to buy their stuff.

We recognize that this may well mean having to shut down Google.cn, and potentially our offices in China."

In a blog post, Google said it detected a "highly sophisticated and targeted attack on our corporate infrastructure originating from China" in mid-December and that the attack resulted in "the theft of intellectual property from Google." http://online.wsj.com/article/SB126333757451026659.html?mod=djemalertTECH Since the WSJ wants you to pay, see: http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/01/new-approach-to-china.html I hope they cover this on ISD tonight.
