Baidu offer a free service so I fail to see how they can be sued for something that they are not contracting to provide.

Lawyers will get rich out of this assuming that China and Baidu don't decide to treat the action with contempt and ignore it.

Daily Horoscope for May 22

Aquarius

Someone is confused and muddled today, making it difficult to talk for long without becoming equally bemused. Avoid making decisions or researching important information, because there's a strong possibility of getting crossed wires, or talking at cross purposes. A memory may also be distorted now, leading to mix-ups or bewilderment.
