The U.S. government has recently begun talks with the Chinese government over a controversial rule requiring computer makers to install Web-filtering software on computers sold in China, according to a U.S. administration official close to the talks.
In meetings with Chinese officials, representatives from the U.S. have expressed concern that the rule would be burdensome for computer makers and that it would set a dangerous precedent. The official said that talks were "in the initial phases," and that the U.S. could ramp up its efforts between now and the July 1 deadline for computer companies to comply with the order. The official added that the U.S. would like to see the requirement revoked.
