Yahoo Sued on Behalf of Imprisoned Chinese Activist

Occasionally I’ve posted items about the problems of U.S. companies such as Yahoo!, google, cisco, and Microsoft kowtowing to the Chinese government’s rules. A new wrinkle is that Someone in China has lodged a complaint against Yahoo! for its part in the current imprisonment of the Chinese activist Shi Tao.

Is it good risk management to do things that keep being brought up as bad by legislatures and journalists?
