Google is censoring *Sakineh Ashtiani* search

November 5, 2010

Ashtiani/stoning posts

No doubt about it now. Back in Sept (somewhere around the 22nd) Ahmadinejad commented that there were “3.7 million Internet pages about this woman”.

So I thought I would check and sure enough googling *Sakineh Ashtiani* yielded 3.83M results.

I checked again on the 25th and the number remained unchanged at 3.83M.

This morning the same search yielded only 1.8M results – even after the huge public outcry in the last 2 days about her latest murder date.

Who do you reckon is behind the censorship.
