China has confirmed that it renewed Google's license to operate after a monthslong standoff over Internet censorship, saying the company has pledged not to provide "lawbreaking content."
Xinhua said Sunday that Guxiang, the operator of Google's China website, agreed to "abide by Chinese law" and "ensure the company provides no lawbreaking content" in its renewal application letter. "After our assessment, we decided that Guxiang had basically met the requirements," the ministry official, who was not identified, was quoted as saying.
