Gary Bauer provides this insight into modern day business ethics:  

House leaders … were publicly shaming American corporate executives for betraying human rights activists incommunist China.  Evidently, a number of Chinese dissidents have beenjailed as a result of Yahoo’s cooperation with the communist state.

In one case, a Chinese journalist who e-mailed a government memo
prohibiting coverage of the anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre
was sentenced to 10 years in prison after Yahoo turned over the reporter’s
e-mail account information to the Chinese government.

Yahoo executives expressed regret, but defended their actions by stating
that doing business in China is complicated.  If the costs of doing
business with the communist Chinese require our companies to sacrifice the
principles of freedom, I would hope every American business executive would
conclude that such costs are too high.

Rep. Tom Lantos (D-CA), chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee and
the only Holocaust survivor serving in Congress, castigated the Yahoo
executives, saying, “While technologically and financially you are giants,
morally you are Pygmies.”
