Imagine if google was in the business of faking cancer treatments with Army hospitals. That would basically be Baidu and the PLA.

Google is not that corrupt yet, thank goodness. However, to respond to the idea in the other comment: That Chinese people, Chinese society, or Chinese culture is somehow the root cause, I think we should be calling out Baidu and the PLA in particular.

Oh, I totally believe those things would happen in the states if we didn’t have much better rule of law than China. It’s a corrupt government, but culture that it is the problem.
