Google CEO: Open to returning to China

"If we can do it in the right and thoughtful way we are always open to it," said Pichai at the Code conference here. "I care about serving consumers everywhere." Google pulled out of mainland China and moved its Chinese-language search engine to Hong Kong in 2010 after a series of cyber attacks on Google originated in the country. Google also said it would stop censoring search results in China. The controversial move cut Google off from the fast-growing Chinese market, one that's been courted by rival Facebook and constitutes the second-biggest market for Apple.
