Users who visit Google.cn are now automatically redirected to Google.com.hk, effectively ending search censorship in China.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">In a saga which has now stretched a few months, Google has <a href=\"http:\/\/googleblog.blogspot.com\/2010\/03\/new-approach-to-china-update.html\" >finally stopped operations<\/a> in China and will no longer censor search results in China. The move which was sparked when <a href=\"http:\/\/techie-buzz.com\/tech-news\/google-to-china-enough-is-enough.html\" >Chinese hackers hacked into the email account of some diplomats<\/a> also dubbed as <a href=\"http:\/\/techie-buzz.com\/tech-news\/google-hack-attack-operation-aurora.html\" >Operation Aurora<\/a> which <a href=\"http:\/\/techie-buzz.com\/latest-news\/were-google-employees-involved-google-hacking.html\" >may have included some Google Employees<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Google had claimed that they <a href=\"http:\/\/techie-buzz.com\/latest-news\/google-quit-china-april.html\" >would move out of China by April 10th<\/a>, however that move came in earlier than expected. We had also spotted that <a href=\"http:\/\/techie-buzz.com\/latest-news\/is-google-serving-uncensored-tiananmen-square-information-in-china.html\" >Google was already censoring some search results<\/a> as early as last week.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Google has also created a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.google.com\/prc\/report.html#hl=en\" >new page<\/a> which displays the status of Google services in China, some of the services including <a title=\"Articles Related to YouTube\" href=\"http:\/\/techie-buzz.com\/tag\/youtube\" rel=\"tag\" >YouTube<\/a> and Blogger have been blocked for a long time now. However, I am wondering how quickly those green tick marks will turn into red cross marks now.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 0px auto; display: block; float: none; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px\" title=\"Google China Service Status\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Google China Service Status\" src=\"http:\/\/cache.techie-buzz.com\/images\/postimg\/WindowsLiveWriterNewUILooksGood_F6D6\/google_china_service_status.png\" width=\"257\" height=\"299\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Back in January, we told you how some Chinese users of Google were <a href=\"http:\/\/techie-buzz.com\/featured\/rip-google-china.html\" >offering condolences to Google China<\/a>, however, let the real condolences pour through now.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">This is not the end, the battle has just begun.
