According to some Google employees I've heard from - during late
December and early January Google undertook a massive review of staff
recruitment processes in China, and system security, with just that
scenario in mind.
China's desire to access Google's data is probably no stronger than say,
Mossad's, NSA's, etc. etc.
I've no idea how much money China has.
