Google has made the decision to "tailor" their China news and search pages to fall in line with Chinese Government policy. This means that any dissenting voices will be eliminated from searches, news will conform to Government policy, and going against its own fine "Ten Things" principals.
"Google has custom built a web search platform that blocks access to unbiased information about Tibet, human rights and other topics sensitive to Beijing. In doing so, Google isn't just helping the Chinese authorities by censoring "sensitive topics," it is enabling the Chinese government's propaganda by returning search results tailored to Beijing's repressive policies. For example, searching on "Dalai Lama" will only bring results portraying him as a "splittist.""
