Google Declines To Talk About China

Google apparently has decided not to provide members of the US Congress with any further information about its business engagement in China.
Google's decision to pad its market entry into China with censored search results has led to a wave of criticism from governments as well human rights organizations. Google, in turn, maintains that most of the content accessed by the search engine would have anyway been blocked in the Chinese market.
I find it interesting that not only Google, but Microsoft and Cisco have declined to attend the Congressional Human Rights Caucus. Is there a reason why these companies should hide this info from our government? Makes you wonder what else they are hiding.

    Personally I think the US should stay out of China's business with these companies, but that's just me.
