Google snubs Oz censorship fan Conroy
p2pnet view Politics| Advertising:- What was meant to be a “panel discussion” at Google’s Sydney, Australia, HQ, yesterday “quickly turned into a debate on major communications policies”, says news.com.au.
“It was interesting for a start because neither the Communications Minister Stephen Conroy or his shadow counterpart were present”, says the story, noting:
“In fact, Google has told news.com.au they weren’t even invited.”
Gargle, the net’s largest and most powerful advertising company, didn’t comment on why the minister and shadow minister were overlooked, it adds.
Conroy (right) was spearheading ex-Oz prime minister Kevin Rudd’s efforts to impose China-like online censorship in Australia.
Google isn’t keen.
No need to stay tuned.
