With my ability to access the Chinese network, I have prepared a series of screenshots showing the other services that, in my testing, were provided in response to requests for Google. They're quite striking -- it's incredibly odd to see other pages below the Google heading in the Address Bar! -- and so I thought your readers might be interested.
