[ NNSquad ] Bill Gates: "I'll give Google credit if they pull out of the U.S."

[Lauren Weinstein <lauren@vortex.com>]

I won't prolong this further, but I'm fascinated (and disgusted) by
these new attempts by Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer to equate clearly
oppressive Internet restrictions and obscenely poor human rights
policies in other countries with "controversial laws or policies" in
the U.S.

If they really can't see the difference, something is seriously 
wrong -- not with us -- but with Gates and Ballmer, who have profited 
very handsomely indeed from the country that they now seem so willing 
to publicly diss.

   "What point are they making?" Mr. Gates asked. "Now, if Google ever
    chooses to pull out of the United States, then I'd give them
    credit."
