Google and the Western media in general have effectively turned this imbroglio into a clash of morals. Perhaps. But it is also yet another symbol of the shifting balance of economic power globally. Other countries censor content, and not just rogue regimes such as the Iranian mullocracy. Web sites are blocked throughout the Persian Gulf and North Africa based on objectionable content and this hasn't created much of a furor. Other countries also engage in cyber espionage, especially Israel and of course the United States Government itself with the largest group of hackers in the world employed by the National Security Agency.

Google和西方媒体实际上把这种纠纷演变成了道德观的冲突。也许是吧。但是这也是全球经济力量平衡正在移动的又一个象征。其它国家也审查网络内容,而且不光是无赖政权比如伊朗的宗教领导。屏蔽有反对内容网站的作法在波斯湾国家和北非是普遍现象,但这并没有引起多大的愤怒反应。其它国家也进行网络间谍活动,特别是以色列,当然,还有米国政府自己,米国政府的国家安全局雇佣了世界上最多的骇客。

But China's efforts to censor and monitor the web represent a challenge to the uncontested hegemony of Western business and to the dominance of Silicon Valley in the world of new technologies. That story — of China's emergence and a burgeoning world of hungry entrepreneurs not willing to play second fiddle to America — is the backstory for the Google imbroglio and one that is about to assume center stage.

但是中国审查监视网络的努力代表了对西方公司无人能敌的霸权和硅谷在世界新技术领域统治地位的一种挑战。那个故事——中国的兴起和不甘居于米国之下的饥饿的企业家世界的萌芽,才是google纠纷背后的故事,并将会转到前台来。
