Google Beijing Intruders

A video from Google Beijing [ http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_ca00XNTA1MDM0MA==.html] shows someone by the name of Zola whose AdSense account has been cancelled, I'm told. In the video, you can see him trying to enter the Google office to get to talk to management. Apparently, his previous emails had been rejected. His first stop though is the guard at the door. The second stop is a woman the lobby. Furthermore I'm told the Google receptionist agrees that the AdSense support isn't good, but that it's their fault, not hers, which then made Zola accuse her of not representing the company as whole. B. who sent this said the video is "not a noble action though."

That Google guard, by the way, apparently also jumps out every now and then to defend office spy shots like the following...

Zola is a crazy famous blogger in china. But he is really powerful. After this case, google began to add white list(permitted website) for Adsense.

Maybe, Zola changed Google a little.

BTW, I did not like Zola, he is a dangrous blogger. Any hosting company who hosted his blog will be banned by the china great fire wall soon.

Google said it would add white list function to AdSense since last year, when i met Kaifu Lee. Not for Zola.

I don't like Zola as well .. he made the reception's job hard ... there is no point firing at her ... she is so innocent!

[put at-character here]Ken Wong, can you tell me why Google open White List Function after Zola's Case, so soon. By chance?

Google have many plans, only it feel something urgent. Big Company. At least, Zola make this to be urgent.
