The whole issue is a disagreement on what is the context and purpose of business organisations.<br /><br />The job of deciding policies, laws and the social frameworks is the job of the people and governments and not businesses. Again we'll never agree on this, but .....<br /><br />In the case of China, the issue of censorships is one that other world governments should take up with China - not Microsoft or Facebook. If they don't follow the rules of the Chinese government, they cannot operate there. You would argue that this is what they should do - withdraw from China. But then does the US government withdraw from China ? Do the American people stop buying Chinese products and services. The US government has far more leverage on China, but hasn't cracked the Great Firewall, one bit. So when the US government and its people are very happy to deal with China, as it is warts and all, why fault Microsoft or Facebook.Rameshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11782192840421019943noreply@blogger.com
