China is defending its Internet censorship policies, less than a day after U.S. Internet company Google moved its China-based search engine to Hong Kong.
Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang fended off questions about Google by saying the Internet in China is fully open, but that it is administered according to law and in line with international practice.
Qin says China filters content that it considers harmful to national security or social interest.
He urged foreign Internet service providers, such as Google, to abide by China's laws and regulations if they want to do business here.
