Google the Taliban and a Link Removed

fantomaster — Tue, 12 May 2009 05:21:53 +0000

The wedding party is definitely over: both the media and the political establishment are starting to view Google as a prime threat to a slew of well established rights and business practices, ranging from privacy through copyright infringement to monopoly status possibly requiring enforcement of Anti Trust laws. Google, expectably, is not amused - and pulled a link they had pointed to our recent Data Kraken article.

Criticizing Google for their boundless data greed and the unfettered self-serving disregard for their users' privacy is nothing new. But rather than adopt a myopic, fragmentized view of things, it's about time to view their transgression in aggregate because in total it is actually dramatically greater and far more sinister than the mere sum of its individual constituents would lead you to believe.
