谷歌拟退出中国是“施压策略”?
Google’s threat to pull out of China over what it claims to be cyber attacks has left millions of Chinese users concerned - and analysts described the move as the company’s strategy to put pressure on the Chinese government.本文来源:考试大网
   Google - the world’s largest search engine - said in a statement yesterday that it is considering exiting China after the company had been hit in December with major cyber attacks that it believes originated in the country.
   It is not clear whether users in China, including many foreigners, would continue IPL LASER to access services such as Gmail and Google Map, should the company shut its service.
   David Drummond, Google’s chief legal officer, said in an unusual statement posted online that the company had detected a highly sophisticated and targeted attack from China that resulted in the theft of the company’s intellectual property. hrmovlser
   "These attacks ... led us to conclude that we review the feasibility of our business operations in China."
   He said Google will no longer continue censoring results on Google.cn, a Chinese-language website it launched in 2006, and is discussing with the Chinese government the possibility that it operate an unfiltered search engine within the law.
   "We recognize that this may well mean having to shut down Google.cn, and potentially IPL LASER our offices in China," he added.
   The statement marks a shift in the company’s China strategy for the past five years, which is to provide censored results under Chinese law through its domestic search engine in exchange for a presence in the world’s largest online population.
   That strategy helped Google take about 35 percent of China’s search IPL LASER engine market in the fourth quarter of last year, according to domestic research firm Analysys International.
   Google started a Chinese-language search service as early as 2000 but the company did not have a significant presence in the country until it established a China team in 2005 and launched Google.cn the following year.
   Google’s possible retreat from China has prompted the company’s 700 IPL LASER China staff to fear for their jobs.
   "At a general meeting on Wednesday, we were told that Google might quit China, and all of us feel very sad," said an employee with Google’s Beijing office on condition of anonymity.
   Drummond’s post also said Google would try to negotiate with the Chinese government for more favorable operating conditions in China.
   However, the anonymous employee told Xinhua that most IPL LASER Google employees are pessimistic about the outcome of the negotiations.
   Dozens of Google users gathered at the company’s headquarters in Beijing yesterday afternoon, some bringing flowers to say farewell.
   Most of them were university students who came to pay tribute to the IT giant, expressing disappointment at its withdrawal from China.
   Google is one of the few Internet giants that have a significant presence in China. Other firms such as Yahoo! and eBay Inc have given up on the China market after years of sluggish performance
