A full Google retreat from Hong Kong in the near future has become “very likely,” said Xiaomeng Lu, director of consulting firm Eurasia Group’s geotechnology practice.
She argues the current legal tussle is following the same pattern that ultimately led Google to pull its search engine from mainland China in 2010.
Local residents sing a theme song written by protesters “Glory to Hong Kong” at a shopping mall in Hong Kong on Sept. 11, 2019.A restraining order also could open other US tech firms to a new wave of legal action over their content policies.In their filing, local authorities argued the lyrics of “Glory to Hong Kong” advocate “secession.”
They blamed the latter incident on Google and demanded the company bury “Glory to Hong Kong” in its search results. Christoff argued Google “absolutely cannot cede the Chinese market for business purposes,” noting such an exit would effectively close off access to a huge market of consumers and have cascading effects for its Android operating system, the Google Play Store and YouTube.
