Of course Chinese Government control .cn domain system, but to modify the website they would have to change the DNS record and this would be visible to anyone. I just checked and the DNS record points to a genuine Google server.
Anyway, you can check for yourself by trying a version in the .com domain system:

Google Government doesn't have any technical control over this one, and it still shows the message. - Philipp_Lenssen, on 04/29/2008, -0/+1I'm inquiring with Google if this is by any chance an act just by the Chinese gov't without Google helping, if anyone knows more, your comment is appreciated.

I believe this IS the truth, as the copyright on the page says 2006, while real Google pages say 2008, as it is supposed to be.
