Google Says It May Revisit China Censorship Policies

Search giant Google (Nasdaq: GOOG) may seek to alter terms of the agreement it made in order to conduct its Web search business in China. Google co-founder Sergey Brin suggested the move after admitting the company's decision to agree to censorship conflicts with its philosophy and famous "do no evil" motto.

Brin has acknowledged in the past that Google's deal with China's communist government to censor certain search terms "wasn't what we ideally would like." However, the company has said that the opportunity to do business in China was too great to ignore, and argued that having a presence there could, over time, lead to more openness and free speech.


On Tuesday, Brin went a step further, saying the company may even reverse its earlier decision to agree to the censorship.
