They comment that "moving to a mandatory ISP filtering regime with a scope that goes well beyond such material (child abuse and terrorism) is heavy handed and can raise genuine questions about restrictions on access to information." iinet an Australian ISP who are also against the filter accuse Conroy of intentionally giving false information when he claims "85% of ISP's welcome the filter." So now he’s a liar too. The general public has taken protest even further. The group anonymous attempted to "annihilate (the Australian governments) presence on the internet" by dosing Australian government websites, mainly the aph website.
She felt he sabotaged the Wall Street Journal by allowing the New York Times to run the story. P&G’s position on their actions was stated as being due to the “significant and ongoing leaks of our confidential business data, plans and strategies.” They filed a complaint which resulted in a grand jury investigation. It was based on 1967 and 1974 laws which made it a crime for employees to give away articles representing trade secrets and prohibits employees from disclosing confidential information. Reporters are protected by the First Amendment and in Ohio, “shield-laws” protect the reporters’ confidential sources identity. The Ohio laws’ interpretation was ambiguous; therefore, P&G’s claims were unfounded.
However, media censorship may be the only true way to protect our thoughts and mannerism. There are dispute as to whether censorship is good or bad. Nowadays, even entertainment materials are the victims of media censorship. In the internet, pornographic photos and video clips are widespread. So, the ministry of information had to trim them according to the rate of exposure and movies that are shown in cinemas are rated according to their contents too.
One example is what Google did when they brought their search engine to China. It was set up so that China could block access to anything that bad mouthed the Chinese government. The Cold War The United States got involved in the Cold War because it was fearful of the spread of communism, and felt it was a threat to the stability and freedom of the world. The two major countries involved were the United States and the Soviet Union. The United States believed that the Soviet Union would do whatever they could to spread their beliefs to the entire world.
What long-term strategy should Wal-Mart adopt in China? What Should Wal-Mart Do? Although the continued market expansion into China may seem desirable, Wal-Mart should slow expansion in China until infrastructure expands to support its unique distribution system. China’s under-developed highway network severely hampers Wal-Mart’s effort for efficient distribution. Instead of ending operations, it is important for Wal-Mart to remain a viable competitor in the Chinese market and not completely abandon its foothold gained thus far.
ETHICAL ISSUE(S) & DILEMMA The Foxconn suicides can be viewed from an ethical lens because China’s labour costs have been kept low for years, while expectations kept increasing. Global companies are tapping on the low-wage labour market in China to keep costs low, but many fail to fully understand or accept the moral implications. These problems are complex because they result in benefits for some and harms for others, because the exercising of the rights of some usually results in denying the rights of others. (Hosmer, L.T, 2009) The main ethical issue from the Foxconn case would be: whether it is ethical for Mr. Terry Guo, to place the firm’s benefits ahead of the personal well-being of the employees. Being the world’s largest contract manufacturer of computers and electronics (The China Post, 2010) – serving huge companies such as Apple, Dell, Sony and more, Foxconn may not be able to serve its clients if it is unable to maintain its aggressive cost-management policies.
Seldom is there a deep understanding of why cheating is so wrong, and perhaps this is due to the inconsequential consequences to cheating. In ancient China, when the Chinese administered examinations for jobs in the civil service, tests were given in separate cubicles to prevent examinees from cheating. Examinees were searched for concealed notes and a death penalty applied for examinees that were found guilty (Jackson, Levine, Furnham & Burr, 2002). If the severity level of consequences were more complex today, what level of integrity would a person abandon to cheat? "If instructors have poorly conceived classes and requirements, students will have plenty of rationalizations for cheating," the study's lead author, University of Missouri sociology Professor Edward Brent, said in a statement.
For government as a representative of the public rights and the power of a country while owning and operating the Internet, has the absolute responsibility to censor the Internet so as to protect its own citizens from harmful and false information. Thus Internet censorship was invented and divided into three main parts, which are blocking, filtering and protecting, pornography and hate literature for examples, are commonly used to lure Internet surfers’ attention and to generate profits by spreading harmful and sexual messages. In this case, the Internet censorship provides a protection to the users through blocking specific Internet Protocol (IP) addresses and filtering sensitive keywords regardless of the domain name specified in the Uniform Resource Locator (URL). As can be seen, technical censorship can be devised into more sections under the Internet content as: Internet Protocol (IP) address blocking, Domain name system (DNS) filtering and redirection, Uniform Resource Locator filtering, Packet filtering, Connection reset, Network disconnection, Portal censorship and search result
In term of politic that will affecting the 99 Speedmart is government policy.

Chinese currency manipulation undermines American manufacturing and our very own job-creating efforts. The unethical practices includes stealing intellectual property of the US, flooding the US market with cheap goods, child labor, wage and hour issues and poor working conditions, the traditional gift giving for the purpose of building network connections, bribery concepts and corruption affects all the shareholders of the USA in the business. These practices have a lot of negative impacts to the USA economy and business of the companies that can take the businesses of the United States of America down in the long term. I think the United States of America needs to pass a bill and enforcement of a trade law and include new ways of administration and management to fight currency manipulation and improve oversight of currency exchange rates and the Treasury Department should undervalue and trigger tough consequences and sanctions for Chinese’ s unfair trade. "China has been known to violate the intellectual property rights related to technology, goods, and services, harming the companies from which it steals.
