China's Minister of Industry and Information Technology has warned Google that if it stops censoring search results in the country, it will "have to bear the consequences."

"If you insist on taking this action that violates Chinese laws, I repeat: you are unfriendly and irresponsible, and you yourself will have to bear the consequences."

Earlier this week, Google CEO said that "something will happen soon" with the company's government talks, though he reiterated that there was "no timetable" for the discussions.

Just pull out. There's a difference between doing business with shady people and supporting a tyrannical regime which tries to keep it's citizens in a state of controlled mental blindness. Tell that to that guy from Minitrue.
