The Latest: Senator blasts Google for reply on China search
WASHINGTON (AP) - The Latest on congressional hearings on social media issues (all times local):
7:30 p.m.
Sen. Mark Warner of Virginia is blasting Google for a response to lawmakers’ inquiries about its reported plans to launch a search engine in China that would comply with censorship laws.
Warner says he is “truly disappointed” with a letter from Google CEO Sundar Pichai that arrived Friday, before a Senate hearing Wednesday in which Google will not have a representative present.
Pichai said in the letter he wasn’t able to answer detailed questions and said the question of whether it would release a search engine in China “remains unclear.”
