She said that Vole, Yahoo and Google were matching their morals to suit new markets and had words such as “ethics” and “corporate social responsibility” from their codes of conduct.

Wallstroem was enraged at the lengths Microsoft, Yahoo and Google have gone to in order to accommodate the wishes of the Chinese government.
