I was banned in Google



Google has announced that they are going to flag prohibited search queries for users from China. Alan Eustace from the main office of Google told about how some search queries lead to the disconnection and the further inability to use the service within the next 90 seconds. He also stated that the company checked its servers several times and did not find an error, so external factors (namely The Great Firewall of China) were the cause. Every time you enter a forbidden search query, an error message appears, as in the picture above, with a suggestion to search for something else, or use Pinyin (one of the Chinese hieroglyphic transcription systems) in which queries with forbidden words calmly give the result. For example, instead of [长江], users search for [changjiang] which is the usual transliteration and receive an answer to their request.
