Yahoo Seeks To Dismiss China Case, was an interesting read as it deals with the fact that as more and more companies become global companies in this new technological age, they face differing rules and regulations in every country.  We see companies such as IBM, HP, Intel, etc. that are global not only in the sense that they sell products globally, but they have different divisions of their companies and employees in different parts of the world.  Try calling Citigroup about your mortgage and you are calling someone in India.   So, when companies truly become global, trying to follow the right rules and regulations can be blury and difficult.  Corporate ethics are going to be different from country to country.
