Hmm... I really disagree with this. From all the I've read on the situation, saying that "Google servers were hacked" is inaccurate. Everything I've read points to this being a rather sophisticated phishing-style attack against a few specific accounts. My understanding was that only the profile information of 2 accounts "may" have been compromised. Given the nature of other GhostNet attacks, I think the fact that Google got off so lightly is extremely impressive, and actually increased my confidence in their systems. On top of that, I've read several reports that Sergey Brin has been wanting to leave China for sometime, mainly for philosophical reasons.
