You have Baidu in China and Yandex in Russia. If google left EU, there will be another player to fill its needs.

Perhaps not as good, but good enough.

Not as good? The only reasons I'm not using those two is because of the fact that English/western users are an afterthought/secondary concern and some privacy concerns. They are pretty good in what they offer. I find myself using Bing more than Google nowadays.

Is Baidu paying the “correct” taxes to the EU?
