Major news sites in China start to filter out this news which has been heavily reported several hours ago. I expected all Google service will be blocked by the end of today.&lt;p&gt;Edit: maybe not that soon. A second thought, current news block may be interpreted as a &quot;saving face&quot; for Google. China high officials may have that kind of thought and think it is for Google&apos;s own benefits so that they can still discuss with Chinese gov. Otherwise if it is spread, there is no room for discussion.</text><parent_chain><item><author>siculars</author><text>I am so proud of Google right now. It&apos;s hard to contain. It is high time somoene stood up to China and let them know enough is enough. I sincerely hope other corporations follow suit.&lt;p&gt;As I mentioned elsewhere, I am sure there is more to the story than is being let on now. I could only imagine the level of corporate espionage that is in play between China and Google. Good for Google calling them on it and making a broad public move.&lt;p&gt;As far as I&apos;m concerned, Google has just turned me into a lifelong user.</text></item><item><author>boundlessdreamz</author><text>This is incredible.

I&apos;m disgusted by the levels to which the Chinese Government can stoop.&lt;p&gt;It is time the world stands up to China. If a corporation, whose main aim is to generate profits can eschew it and take a moral high ground why can&apos;t the government do it?
