Yesterday I got a message from my ISP strongly advising to use google as little as possible and stop flat out stop using IE, as both have been pretty badly exploited recently.

If you hadn't heard, China had breached googles security on their email sever as well as hotmail. Google responded by completely stopping the filtering of the search results through google.cn. They are also going to remove their Chinese headquaters and leave China all together.

Maybe it's just that it's late, but:

"Google responded by completely stopping the filtering of the search results through google.ca"

What exactly will that do?

Also, I noticed youtube has been down quite a few times too. Connected?

[edit]
Oh right, just read into it, and its google.cn btw.

Read some shit about Germany filing complaints to Google yesterday and it mentioned something about China. Didn't pay much attention to it and well what do you know, this happens!

**** Scooby Doo in the god damn neck.

The only reason I hate him so much is because someone I HATED way back when LOVED them so I guess it's only natural I hate Scooby Dick so much.
