I wish apple would stop making stuff in China. Not only have I replaced 3 Iphones because of defects, I'm also legitimizing Chinas government by doing business with them. On the otherhand it does help the people.
Of course searching in english is not going to prove anything.<p>Here is a Baidu search in chinese for "Tiananmen Square protests":
<a href="http://www.baidu.com/s?wd=%C1%F9%CB%C4%CA%C2%BC%FE" rel="nofollow">http://www.baidu.com/s?wd=%C1%F9%CB%C4%CA%C2%BC%FE</a>
It says "31 hits" (but it's actually 23)<p>And here is a Baidu search for "Tiananmen Square":
<a href="http://www.baidu.com/s?wd=%CC%EC%B0%B2%E9T%8FV%88%F6" rel="nofollow">http://www.baidu.com/s?wd=%CC%EC%B0%B2%E9T%8FV%88%F6</a>
- 7.7 million hits.<p>You can translate keywords easily by using the wikipedia interlanguage links, which is what I did.<p>I bet that every single one of those 23 hits was tweaked and tuned to make the event sound like an irrelevant, small event in chinese history.
But surprisingly it doesn't ban you from searching on this, unlike searching for "google.blogspot.com": <a href="http://www.baidu.com/s?wd=google.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.baidu.com/s?wd=google.blogspot.com</a><p>Edit:<p>I realise this has been pointed out before, but I find it curious that "google.blogspot.com" gets you banned, but "Tiananmen square massacre" doesn't.
And who would dare even <i>enter</i> such a search result from an ISP in China?<p>One of the "search results" would probably not appear on your screen... but in some sort of government database of "suspected dissidents." A government-run search engine is a must for any totalitarian regime.
