Google.com is now unbanned in China
Recently Google was banned in China as it displayed information on sites related to Falun Gong, Tiananmen Square and such other political issues.
Softwares such as Ultrasurf, Dynapass, Freegate etc were also banned as they allow you to surf the censored contents.
The content was actually banned using their firewall technique.
“It’s always the same thing that happens in China — they heavily censor the internet because they think people will be discussing the event,” said Julien Pain, RSF Internet Freedom desk chief.
This January google launced chinese version of its search engine at google.cn and it seems to be self censored version where certain topics and sites are blocked in its search results. Sites related to gambling, pornography, and politially sensitive content have been totally blocked and its done as per advice of Chinese government.
Companies like Yahoo have already agreed with Chinese goverenment regarding its terms of banning certain web contents in China.
Now after this ban of about 10 days its great to hear that now the Chinese Government has lifted the ban from Google and people there able to access the Google.com.
