Google pulling out of China. Your thoughts?

[Melissa]

Google announces that it may pull out of China because it doesn't like to be censored. All the major news sites like the BBC are discussing it.

We launched Google.cn in January 2006 in the belief that the benefits of increased access to information for people in China and a more open Internet outweighed our discomfort in agreeing to censor some results.

So it had nothing to do with profit?

Or was Google right to go into China agreeing to censor its results for the Chinese population?

Wow I'm somewhat speechless after reading that article. The cynic in me says Google won't pull out...let's see.
