Symbol of protest at Google

Google's annual shareholder meeting, usually a lovefest, had a tinge of revolt Thursday with a proposal that the company resist censorship in repressive countries. The proposal, which was defeated as expected, challenged the...company's policy in China to censor search results that are deemed sensitive by the Beijing government. Introduced by the Office of the Comptroller of New York City, which oversees New York City pension funds, the proposal highlights the company's continuing public relations problem since introducing its Chinese search engine a year and a half ago...[T]he company's senior vice president for corporate development opposed the proposal, arguing it would force the closure of Google's China Web site and impose rigid rules that do not advance the cause of free expression.
