Being A Little Evil

Google Google's corporate motto is "Don't be evil". Google's new China site doesn't seem to live up to this code of conduct. It seems a little evil.

In China, Google is censoring material deemed objectionable by authorities. China's ruling Communist Party finds a great deal to be objectionable and Google has been censoring everything from references to teen pregnancy, drinking and dating to any allusions to alcohol, Tiananmen Square and sex of any kind. Even jokes are being blackballed.

Google's being a little evil here, but at least they haven't yet censored me.
