By Jade Miller
Over the past two years, Cisco, Microsoft, Yahoo, and Google have entered the Chinese Internet market, providing online or information-related products utilized by the Chinese government to enforce Chinese information censorship laws, conduct online surveillance, and restrict access by Chinese citizens to certain internet sites.

Rose had recently become concerned that European media organizations were self-censoring themselves with regard to issues sensitive to Islam, and was worried that the principles of freedom of speech were under attack. On September 30, with the intent of “pushing back self-imposed limits on expression that seemed to be closing in tighter,” Rose published twelve cartoons depicting the Islamic prophet Mohammed, images that are considered blasphemous by followers of Islam.

Almost none of these outlets made mention of the transfer of management of six U.S. ports from P&O to DP World included in the deal.
