Chinese Google Porn

China is displeased with our Google overlords, and you know what that means. Time for the government to make shit up! During a report on the evils of Google, state-sponsored (what else?) CCTV news recently claimed that Google.cn's indexing of pornography can cause physical problems for those who become the unwitting victims of looking up porn with which to masturbate. Their proof? The testimony of university student Geo Ye, who told CCTV that a friend of his (totally not him) Googled some porn because "he's been curious about these kinds of things" and subsequently became "absent-minded". Not entirely implausible, but absent-mindedness isn't normally one of the physical symptoms of viewing pornography, which include a steady increase in heart rate followed by sudden-onset lethargy. Also, Ye's testimony is questionable since some intrepid techies used the power of Google to discover he's currently working as an intern for (you guessed it) CCTV. Oh, China. Don't ever change. Or actually, go ahead and change. More details here.
