According to a recent article in The Guardian, Chinese search engine Baidu founder, Robin Li, may have shown he can go toe to toe with Google in China, but it also indicates he is heavy on censorship.
As the article details Baidu is “a search engine that is weak on piracy and strong on censorship. It is very much in keeping with a country that mixes ultra- capitalist economics with authoritarian communist politics.”
Interestingly, Li looks beyond Google and sees his company taking on Bill and Microsoft some time in the future.
