Congress slams China and Microsoft, praises Google
,----[ Quote ]
| Two days after Google stopped censoring
| search results in China, a congressional
| panel praised the company's actions while
| excoriating the Beijing government for its
| record on Internet censorship and human
| rights.
|
| [...]
|
| "They [Microsoft] need to get on the right
| side of human rights rather than enabling
| tyranny, which they're doing right now,"
| Smith said.

Microsoft Bangs the Antitrust Drum Against Google
,----[ Quote ]
| Significantly, myTriggers' lawyers include
| a prominent state attorney, Stanley
| Chesley, as well as Rick Rule, the chief

| YouTube subsidiary for copyright
| violations. U.S. federal Judge Louis
| Stanton agreed to release voluminous
| documents and statements from the $1
| billion lawsuit (See related story).

Lawmaker Blasts Microsoft
,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft came under attack Wednesday from
| a House lawmaker for not following Google's
| lead in resisting China's demand for
| foreign firms to abide by the country's
| censorship rules and Internet restrictions.
|
| During a hearing focused on Internet
| control in China before the Congressional-
| Executive Commission on China, Rep. Chris
| Smith, R-NJ, singled out Microsoft, which
| has said it will continue to operate in
| China and follow Chinese laws. Microsoft
| "needs to get with the program" and "join
| the side of human rights...rather than
| enabling tyranny," Smith said.

Microsoft Sees a Window in Googleâs China Woes
,----[ Quote ]
| However the Google episode pans out, itâs
| likely to have a lasting impact on the way
| foreign companies deal with China. Over the
| years, foreign executives have frequently
| made the mistake of copying the way that
| Chinese officials deal with their
| superiors. The approach is best summed up
| in the Chinese phrase âpai ma piâ â
| âslapping the horseâs rearâ. The problem
| with sycophancy isnât so much that itâs
| offensive to watch, but that itâs a lousy
| business strategy. China may enjoy the
| kowtow, but it doesnât respect it.
