Controversy" U* o3 ~4 W; [# J" a
After Google Pinyin was initially released in April 2007, it was soon discovered that Google Pinyin's dictionary database contained employee names of Sogou Pinyin, an indication that the dictionary was taken from Sogou, one of Google's competitors in the Chinese Internet market. On April 8, 2007, Google admitted that they used "non-Google database resources".[1] Sohu, the operator of Sogou, demanded that Google remove the application from its website, and threated to sue Google if Google refuses.[2] As of February 2008, Google Pinyin is still available on Google's website.& L) n7 T" u9 L# H" S9 K
