Re: Has Google's Drummond ever heard the word "hypocrisy" ?

You're not making any valid point. So what if they bought joe-bobs-search-tech. People use google because it is the best.

Microsoft wants to buy millions of yahoo users and point them at their search engine and their advertisers and their products.

 People use google because they ran just about everyone else out of the business.

I don't really care what they do, or Microsoft for that matter. They are both for-profit entities and would not think twice to sell you for a nickel if they bought you for a penny.

Google has their "search bar" inserted into the installers of more and more online applications. It installs by default. This is not a good thing. You can continue to defend them as some sort of benevolent entity but behind the scenes it is all about the money. Do you really know where your information is?

I sure do. And what's out in the open is there because I let it be there. A person is crazy to think that anyone that wants you info doesn't have it already.

Suit yourself. But don't use that as justification for blindly trusting any corporation.
