Google will no longer divert Chinese web users to its Hong Kong site

Google will no longer コースを変える Chinese web 使用者s to its Hong Kong 場所／位置

Google will no longer automatically redirect Chinese web 使用者s to its Hong Kong 場所／位置 in an 成果／努力 to placate Beijing censors.

The company began コースを変えるing 使用者s in March after 説 it would no longer 協力する with the 共産主義者 政府’s internet 検閲.

Google said regulators have told the search 巨大（な） its internet licence, which 満了する／死ぬs tomorrow, would not be 新たにするd if that continued.

'They made it （疑いを）晴らす to us that they did not think the redirect was 許容できる,' said Google spokeswoman Jessica Powell. She 拒絶する／低下するd to say what 推論する／理由s the 政府 gave for its 反対s.

On a company blog, Google's 長，指導者 合法的な officer David Drummond said that Chinese 当局 told the company: 'if we continue redirecting 使用者s our internet content provider licence will not be 新たにするd'.

Google still operates a music download service and several other features on Google.cn that are not 影響する／感情d by filtering 規則s and Ms Powell said it wants those services to continue.

Instead of automatically 存在 switched to Google.hk, 訪問者s to Google.cn now see a tab that says in Chinese: 'We have moved to google.com.hk.'

使用者s can click on that tab to move to the 場所／位置 in Hong Kong, which is a Chinese 領土 but has Western-style civil liberties and no internet filtering.

A foreign 省 広報担当者, Qin ギャング（団）, sai d he had not seen Google's 告示 and could not comment on it.

However, he 追加するd: 'I would like to 強調する／ストレス that the Chinese 政府 encourages foreign 企業s to operate in 中国 によれば 法律.'

Google's 告示 in January that it no longer wished to 従う with Chinese internet filtering was an 当惑 for 共産主義者 leaders, who want foreign companies to help develop 中国's 科学（工学）技術 産業s.

Google was the last major foreign internet company to operate its own 中国-based service and people in the 産業 are watching to see whether 共産主義者 当局 許す it to continue operating other services.

Google, based in Mountain 見解（をとる）, California, also hopes to keep a 研究 centre in 中国, an advertising sales team that 生成するs most of its 歳入 in the country and a fledgling 動きやすい phone 商売／仕事.
