I assume that's not a threat , but I don't understand the dept of emotion.
In anycase, I started this sub-thread with the recent announcements by Google. FaceBook is also going further down the same road... TechCrunch 10/10/13 Facebook Removing Option To Be Unsearchable By Name, Highlighting Lack Of Universal Privacy Controls Quote:

I think it would be useful to think about Google, Facebook, et al in light of this aphorism:
If you're not a paying customer, you're the product.

I'm still bitter at the Germans for banning street view in their country.
I bet they use street view all the time to look at other countries. |

twice other night I woke to find my computer running. Next morning I looked and was Google updater running every hour. Reset that task and maybe will stop that shit.

Will people start saying they "Alphabeted", instead of "Googled" a topic ? I don't think so... |

No, because Google will still exist, it just won't be the umbrella.
