Google censors filesharing searches

In a strange move, or a company generally favouring the "we provide whatever you want" model - and disputing with China over it, Google has taken the necessary steps to stop auto-completing and showing instant search results for your searches "bittorrent" and the like.


Go ahead, try.

Just entering "bitt" is enough to get a completely blank canvas, waitin you to daringly finish your word.

Oddly, however, 'suggestions' remain intact. Helpfully offering results for "bittorrent" when only searching "bittorren".
