Quote: "All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing"

Now think seriously for a few seconds about that quote, and realise how wrong it is. If there are no evil people, then good people don't have to worry, right? Google doesn't have to do anything, China does... or doesn't. If that makes sense?

Well, it's pretty bad timing for the cyberwar to start, especially considering this

War in non-third-world countries is now all online and about economic sabotage.

The company I interned at last summer had just caught a Chinese spy ring whose members had been hired to work on a new system for the government.

BTW
if anyone still cares:

Google shut down its search service on the Chinese mainland last night after a two-month standoff with Beijing over online freedom and an alleged intrusion by hackers.
