China Steps Up Battle With Google
The dispute between Google and the Chinese Government has escalated in the last few days with several sources claiming that Google is certain to withdraw from China, writes DI. Leaving China would mean millions in lost revenue for Google, which has 36 percent of the search engine market. Google’s exit from the country would also have a significantly negative impact on China’s economic interests, as it would signal to other major companies that economic freedom there is limited. But the Chinese Government remains steadfast in demanding that Google comply with its demands and insists China’s Internet market would continue to grow without Google’s presence.
