subject: Is The Chinese Wall Blocking Google? [print this page] It seems that the Chinese government can't make up its mind whether it is talking to Google or not. One ministry is reporting that Google has never threatened to pull out of China, nor has it lodged any complaints regarding the well published cyber-attacks. another ministry however has reported being in negotiations with Google. The real problem for the Chinese government however may lie in the fact that nearly 87% of its population regard access to the Internet as a fundamental right. At the moment it's anyone's guess as to who's doing the most bluffing.
