What technique does the Chinese government use to make images in Google search not available?

Red crosses often show up during my searching on Google images search. These red crosses indicate image not available. Sometimes a whole search results page is full of red crosses, means 20 images are not available. I've heard that this is maybe due to network blockage since i'm in China. But how does the China government achieve this? What's the technical details behind it? Lots of time my images search keywords are not in the black list, which means my keywords are not sensitive. What technique does the Chinese government use to make images in Google search not available?


no technique really. they just send a list of areas they dont want google earth to display, and google doesnt show them.

simple as that mate.
