Google attitude change sensitive words remind cancel

January 5 news, Google's various moves in recent days indicate that its attitude is changing. Since the summer of 2012, Google has launched a service with black humor - sensitive word reminders. At that time, if the user typed some specific words in the search box, Google would display “Please note that searching in China [XX] is likely to cause the user’s connection to Google to be temporarily blocked. This blockage is not controlled by Google.”

However, by early December last year, this function suddenly disappeared. Although the sensitive word reminder service seems to be able to ensure that domestic users use Google, the data shows that this service has the opposite effect. Google chose to change itself in a low-key manner. There are two reasons for this: On the one hand, Google felt the pain of being completely blocked in November last year. On the other hand, Google was laying the foundation for its own development in mainland China.

A few days ago, news has confirmed that Google and Qihoo 360 have reached a cooperation. Google’s chairman Eric Schmidt has frequently exposed news in preparation for a visit to North Korea. Quietly canceling sensitive word alert service seems to be only a small part of this series of activities. All in all, Google’s attitude is changing.
