numbers on google.cn

Yeah, so, some numbers to back me up. In China, Google has about 35% of the search engine market share, Baidu has 60%. Similarly, Ebay finds it hard to compete against local Alibaba's Taobao and AIM/MSN with Tencent's QQ. My guess is that Google pulling out of China is

2. No big deal.

Especially since Chinese people love their "patriotic hackers".
