China Disables Part of Google Functionality for Porn Material

GoogleChina is at it again. They have disabled part of the Google search engine that they claim displays "pornographic and vulgar content", according to the New York Times:
On Friday evening, it appeared that the associative-word feature of the Web site had been disabled. That is the function that displays a drop-down menu of words related to a search word that is typed into the search engine.
I'm not clear on whether Google disabled it themselves voluntarily or if China disabled it by force in some way.
