One bill working its way through committee could slap major internet companies around in a big way.The popularity of a new business can be estimated; however, it is not always guaranteed.

Instead of hiring new employees, it is common for a business owner to use the services of a cal A funny thing has been happening in the online world the last five years and most people don’t have a clue it is going on. Many internet businesses are aggressively focusing on the user market in China. While this may sound somewhat bland, it is creating interesting situations whereby internet businesses, particularly the big search engines are doing some very questionable things.

Currently known as the Global Online Freedom Act, it will effectively put a stop to these shenanigans. The bill essentially forces internet businesses to comply with US law regardless of where they put their servers. It will allow internet businesses to comply with requests for data from law enforcement agencies, but only if the legal issue is valid under US law. In practical terms, this means Google, Yahoo and MSN can’t help Chinese authorities hunt down anti-communist blogs from dissidents and so on.
