The country wants to reinvigorate its economy and boost economic growth. Renewal will require a change Chinese president with atypical (he went to prison and is married to a singer) Xi Jinping will replace Hu Jintao at the end of the Congress.
But China does not lose its old habits with censorship. Google is that, once again, in fact costs.
The Mountain View company has already announced that several of its subdomains were inaccessible from China.
This is the first website www.greatfirewallofchina.org (it allows to test real-time access to sites from major Chinese cities) who became the first echo of this censorship wild specifying the services Google became inaccessible in China: www.google.com google-analytics.com docs.google.com drive.google.com maps.google.com, play.google.com and probably other subdomains of Google.
VPN allows only one still to ignore the censorship. In addition, some subdomains Google other countries (such as google.fr for example) are still accessible.
History does repeat itself since that YouTube has been blocked since 2009 and for a time, they are all Google services that were blocked in 2010.
Censorship is of course for political but it can also hide unfair commercial practices in order to promote the country's equivalent services (eg Baidu).
