Google Gives In



Google gave in to China's censorship demands and agreed to their terms. It's an agreement like this that reminds me to not fully trust the the licensing agreements librarians, and anyone with an e-reader, make with companies who are supplying digital content. They are businesses first and foremost and, like Google, will make decisions at times that run contrary to our values to further their current or future profit margin.
