NOVANEWSGoogle Chairman “Eric Schmidt” said that they will help out the police to trace the extremist websites and said that legal information on Google’s search engine will be indexed to help track “terrorism- promoting websites.” According to The Guardian reports , Schmidt was asked to remove the extremist websites from Google’s search engines during the Hay festival.Schmidt explained about their decision: Schmidt put the ball firmly back in the court of government when it came to questions raised this month about corporate tax avoidance, following criticism that Google does not pay a fair level of tax in Britain. Answering a question posed from an impassioned audience member, he said: “I am rather perplexed by this issue. The international tax regime has been around a long time. No rational computer scientist would have erected such a system.” He said that decisions about these matters should be taken by elected governments and not companies. “Under US law we have a fiduciary responsibility to do what we’re doing. We understand the complaint but we can’t fix it. The British government can fix it,” he said.
