"Make me asian" and "Make me indian" caused a furor a few weeks ago, when organizations defending civil rights and ethnic Chinese citizens began a movement on the Internet to ask Google who removed applications. even had options for transform a face with black features ( "Blackmaker" ) or left Auschwitz ( "Auschwitzmaker" ), which abounds in Jewish characteristics. While the search said in principle that it was not an own product if an application was offered in their store, received a barrage of criticism through emails and comments on social networking lapidary. "If Google's motto is do not be evil, why keep these contents?" , asked one of the protest leaders, Peter Chin. According to specialized sites, applications came from a designer identified as Kimbery Deiss , whose website and has no trace of these projects and which page within the Google store also has disappeared.
