"A couple of days ago, Google announced a plan to stop censoring the Chinese version of its search engine, threatening to  pull out from the Chinese market altogether. One of the main reasons behind this decision was a sophisticated hacker attack on Google that came, Google claims, directly from China. \nThe attack, which used a flaw in Microsoft's Internet Explorer and a trojan named Hydraq, is considered sophisticated not only because of the attackers' level of technical expertise, but also because the attackers knew exactly who to attack. Now, Reuters' source claims that the hackers have had help from Google itself. \nGoogle wasn't prepared to comment on this version of the story, but it's possible that some of the employees working in Google China's offices have helped the attackers. Local media reported that some of Google China's employees were denied access to internal Google networks after January 13, some were put on leave and some were transferred to other offices. \nGoogle claims it's still investigating the attacks, but if true, these allegations shed some light on why Google had reacted so strongly. Maybe Google's decision to publicly call China out had been fueled by the sheer scope of the operation, which might have included the Chinese authorities, Google's employees, and unknown hackers all working in unison."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
