Although there's nothing politically controversial on my blog, does the fact that the search was for "inculcating culture" (not something that most people search for) mean the Chinese authorities are considering banning it?
The fact that the search had a question mark before and after it was also interesting. Could someone who has a controversial site but who doesn't want it banned detect this pattern of searching and redirect to different content?
The offending post is "Toyota's Values vs Agile Methodologies"

Very interesting. TPS is based on Japanese cultural values. Could be a sensitive issue in view of WW II and all that. Also, discussions of agile development often refer to organizational culture change. Some of the words in your post might have triggered a red flag in the Chinese government's software. (Get it? Red flag? Chinese government? Pretty clever, eh?)
