PALO ALTO, U.S. -- As tensions rise between China and the rest of the world, western companies face growing pressure to abide by Beijing's political demands in order to keep doing business in the world's second-largest economy.
The latest display of Beijing's growing influence was seen at Zoom Video Communications. The popular California-based teleconferencing app was the subject of reports that it blocked a Chinese human rights group for several days following an online vigil it held for the 1989 Tiananmen Square crackdown at the end of May.
