>Maybe I'm lacking in morality but I don't understand how serving censored content to people that already live in a society where the content is censored is considered evil.

If only was just a simple web search with some results removed maybe it won't be such a big deal, but consider this:

- Google does this for big money, so they want to sell ads and maybe other services in China

- To make money from ads Google tracks people and collect their data

- By law all this data from China will have to be hosted in China and the government can access it whenever they want, no warrens needed, no way to opose such a request

So Google will track and collect data and hand it over to China to do whatever, I imagine they could do an SQL query to find who searched some "illegal" keywords and send them to work camps or worse.

I think is normal as an employee to tell your bosses that you don't want to work on tools that will be used for harming others and try to convince them to find other contracts since they have already enough money they could maybe be less greedy.

Well, its a line that everyone has, and its probably a little bit different for everyone. Plus I think there are real concerns about googles extremely cozy relationship with the all-seeing-eyes nations.

Beyond that, though, the early internet was very progressive and I think a lot of people saw google as a chance to show the world the good things that technology was capable of. I don't think anyone would argue that some curation is a great thing.. no one wants to find dentists in kansas if they live in montreal of course. I would honestly prefer that breitbart and publications of its ilk be filtered out of my results... but where is the line? Up until recently google was scanning people's emails, which seems a bit dystopian.
