An obvious one to try is that Falun gong (is that the word?) sect that the Chinese government seems terrified of.

American search www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=falun+gong&spell=1

Chinese search www.google.cn/search?hl=zh-CN&q=falun+gong&btnG=%E6%90%9C%E7%B4%A2&meta=

Welcome to China's google. Google decided that instead of not offering searches to the Chinese people they would comply with the gov's censoring request.

I tried the search using the word "rice," thinking that it would come out the other way. WRONG.

Google image search for "rice": 908,000
Google image search, China, for "rice": 2650

I thought there would be WAY more entries for rice with the Chinese version. I hope that doesn't make me appear to be a Riceist.

Google won't cooperate with the US Government to capture a few dozen child molesters, but they'll cooperate with the communist Chinese Government to mind control millions. www.strategypage.com/qnd/china/articles/20060127.aspx

January 27, 2006: China's Ministry of Public Security admitted that, last year, there were 87,000  riots, demonstrations and smaller protests, an increase of  6.6 percent over 2004. The most common cause of this unrest is government corruption, particularly among Communist Party members. The government has responded by pledging to come down hard on anyone who disturbs the peace, as well as finding and punishing corrupt officials. More restrictions are being placed on public access to the Internet (which over 110 million Chinese use.) All this was the same response the government had last year, when it was announced that unrest had been up for several years.
