China's Baidu defeats U.S. lawsuit over censored search results

vendredi 28 mars 2014

People talk in front of a Baidu's company logo at Baidu's headquarters in Beijing January 16, 2014. REUTERS/Jason Lee/Files Chinese Internet company Baidu Inc (NSQ:BIDU) on Thursday won the dismissal of a U.S. lawsuit by pro-democracy activists who complained that Baidu illegally suppressed political speech on China's most widely used Internet search engine. Eight New York writers and video producers had accused Baidu of creating search engine algorithms, at the behest of China, to block users in the United States from viewing articles, videos and other information advocating greater democracy in China. The plaintiffs said this kept Baidu users from seeing their work, unlike users of other search engines such as Google (NSQ:GOOG) and Microsoft's (NSQ:MSFT) Bing.
