Recent news about google china censoring search results on the other hand seem to create more public discussion. Should western companies bow to countries like china that have a different view of freedom of opinion.

I´am not sure why it creates more discussion. I can´t see a big difference between the suppression of search results in countries like germany and france compared to the suppression in china. Maybe someone else could enlighten me about the difference that I´am not seeing here. Nevertheless blog.outer-court.com compared some searches done with google.com and google.cn and displayes those results as graphics next to each other for comparision.

Take a look if you are interested in censorship.
