Well, kind of. I knew they shape their results, but didnt know they forbid you from looking at certain things based on your country.

As ironic as it sounds i suggest you google "google censorship" without quotes.

What does it show for you in the US? Those videos play just fine for me =/
Except for the last one, they don't show anything graphic or even anti-US, just two small explosions.
The third one seems to be from Belfast and doesn't involve the US either - shows soldiers shooting at unarmed civilians though and is very graphic.

Share price already fell from $470 (beginning of the year) to $370 and could fall a lot more. Then again, might just be common sense catching up - good to see people learned from the .com burst...
