Now, when you visit Baidu Japan in China, you will get a page which likes banned by GFW. But it’s not the truth. You could run ‘tracert’ command and found it’s different from other banned sites. It means that Baidu Japan blocks China visitors itself. I think it’s for China’s special pornographic forbidden war. Yes, there is no content classification system in China.

Baidu now release its Japanese search engine to compete with Google and Yahoo! in the largest search market in Asia. Yesterday Baidu.co.jp was transferred to Baidu judged by Japan intellectual property arbitration center, which registered maliciously by a Chinese company in Japan.

Robin Lee, the CEO of Baidu says that Japanese search engine is locally but not internationally. Now Google and Yahoo! hold almost all market averagely in Japan.
