First, very good article.
Baidu’s guanxi is going through a historical low. I really wonder what is the common point for that many Chinese Internet brands to fight against Baidu.
Main reason I can think of is that they have abused of their strong market position and made angry some important people.
That important people in China has very close relationships with even more important people… and they all decided to change the rules?
