Ballmer chimes in, again, on China

To recap: Google (of "don't be evil" fame) brought its business to China several years ago and immediately ran afoul of privacy and human-rights advocates for kowtowing to the censorship demands of the regime there. And recently, Google announced that China had unleashed a dramatic electronic attack on the company and wanted to pull the plug on its search engine which, totally coincidentally, had been losing share badly on a regular basis there. Privacy and human-rights advocates immediately praised Google for growing a pair (as if), then turned their attention to Microsoft and other companies that refused to leave China.
