 Google caved into Brazil over Orkut when profits threatened

I agree that Google should comply with the Brazilian courts request for info. But Google made a big deal about resisting over a period of time. But the minute they saw that Brazil was serious about millions of dollars in fines or shutting them down, they complied. So, the Google reputation for doing what they feel is right folded when faced with reduced profits. So much for their reputation.

The link you provided just rehashes what was said in the first link above. Did you even read the second link.

And your link is covered with Goggle ads. it makes me wonder "media company" seeking more ways to make money, let's see any publicity is better then none.
