Top Pentagon officials say Google work is 'benefiting the Chinese military'
By Harper Neidig - 03/14/19 12:30 PM EDT
 
 
Top defense officials on Thursday blasted Google for its work in China, saying that the company’s efforts are serving the interests of the U.S. adversary.

“The work that Google is doing in China is indirectly benefiting the Chinese military,” Gen. Joseph Dunford, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told the Senate Armed Services Committee in a hearing.

“We watch with great concern when industry partners work in China knowing there is that indirect benefit,” Dunford added. “And frankly, ‘indirect’ may not be a full characterization of the way it really is, it’s more of a direct benefit to the Chinese military.”

Don’t doubt the accusations, so where is the DOJ?

Hence I use DuckDuckGo as my search engine. No tracking.
