UK Journalists Call For Yahoo! Boycott

Shame on Yahoo! They could leave the country but instead they stay and give information pretending they didn't have any choice.BS!!!What is more important? to keep your integrity and protect your own people or to send them to jail pretending providing easier communication to a country who doesnt respect the human rights?
What money can make people do is disgusting and I just want to puke! No moral, no ethic, no principles, no guts!

Living in a country where freedom of speech is taken for granted, I sometimes forget the sacrifices that had to be made for me to have that freedom. Similar sacrifices are being made in China by the journalists who publish against the current laws of that country. They know the risk and choose to publish the information. Although valliant, the consequences of those choices are sacrifices made by the journalists to help improve that country.

Yahoo's presence is helping bring China's citizens into the 21st century. I find it hard to believe that anyone in China, including the reporters that were arrested, would want Yahoo to leave the country in protest. They did what they were supposed to do. Freedom of speech does not yet exist in China, and it would be foolish for us to blame Yahoo for following the law and remaining where they can do the most good.

Yahoo's cowardly, groveling, transparent greed is beyond pathetic. To pretend they can't refuse the almighty communist Chinese government is the most childish level of corporate irresponsibility I've ever seen.

The 'modernization' of China is already far beyond the tipping point and soon, if not already, the ChiComm government won't be able to control information anyway.

It's blatant pandering patronization for Yahoo to claim some altruistic motive in remaining there for the 'good of the Chinese people.' BS!!!! WHO DOES YAHOO THINK THEY ARE FOOLING WITH THIS LINE OF CRAP?

It would be far better PR for Yahoo and would win the respect and long-term loyalty of freedom-lovers all over the globe if they would stand up to the ChiComms on principle and defend the basic human right of free speech. THAT would benefit the Chinese people far more than banner ads and sanitized web searches.

Welcome to modern American Liberalism and its dogma of situational ethics.

Don’t be surprised! There just one reason $$$, so don’t waste your time asking to Yahoo keep a ethic behavior, also avoid talk about “democracy” because within everybody blame another country, we loss the opportunity for ask our governments for real freedom!
It’s easy see the errors in another part, but rarely we found errors in our own side.

Why are we surprised? George "Dubya" is taking away all of our freedoms RIGHT HERE IN AMERICA and our Congress is going right along with him. You can no longer pick up your telephone and call someone and not think big brother is listening. More and more surveillance is being brought upon our own citizens in the name of "Terrorism". And dubya and his group are eating it up. You have to know that for everything we KNOW they are doing, there is 100 times more that they are doing that we are yet unaware of. Bush has become the Dictator of America and we are too stupid to see it. I would worry about what is happening in THIS country TOO if I were you. They are using the guise of the child porn subject to validate anything and everything they want to do with no reason to suspect normal law abiding citizens. The entire world is out of control like a runaway train and no one seems to notice.

As for me, to hell with Yahoo! The only choice is to leave China, then watch things change. Until they do, I'm boycotting Yahoo! JJ
