In the recent actions take by chinese govt, they have blocked entire google services in china.China’s government accused Google Inc. on Thursday of spreading pornography after Chinese Internet users were temporarily unable to gain
access to the U.S. search giant’s main Web site or China-based service.
“We have found that the English version of google.com has spread lots of pornographic, lewd and vulgar content, which is in serious violation of Chinese laws and regulations,” said foreign ministry spokesman Qin Gang. He said authorities “summoned representatives of Google.com in China and urged them to remove the content immediately.”
Qin, speaking at a regular briefing, did not respond to questions about whether China’s government was blocking Web users from seeing Google’s site. However, he said he hoped the problem can be “resolved immediately.” Google said Thursday it was investigating the reason for the outage, which began late Wednesday.
Chinese users were blocked from seeing Google’s US site, its China-based site google.cn and its Gmail e-mail service. A Chinese watchdog agency accused Google last week of providing links to vulgar and obscene sites.
