Has anyone else noticed the Google home page today? It looks like a police officer with a hose spelling google. Makes for a great Thanksgiving home page.

Most FReepers go out of their way to avoid google.....

Gibiru.com is better for privacy and lack of bias.

Why are you on Google?

I go to google to see how the left is disrespecting our American values.

Add those lines to your Hosts file, and make it very difficult for Google to spy on you. Then start using duckduckgo or some other non-evil search engine.

Must be like a Rorschach. I see google squirrels listening in, surveilling and data mining the intimate details of some birds lives so they can manipulate and control them. I guess we see what we want to see.

Thanks.

It is hard to keep up with them all. And I bet there dozens, if not hundreds, of other google owned web addresses that are not obviously connected to them.

I quit doing businesses with sites that you have to enable google Java spy bots to get past recaptcha... or indeed any sites that require ANY Google java to use their site.

“Aren’t you aware that Google sends separate images to users based on their stored data?”

If that’s true, I hate to think what Jeffrey Toobin sees on his Google home page.

I am glad that you posted what you did. Gets the point across.

In 2016, somebody posted an article to FreeRepublic.com, about the numbers and percentages of GOP county leaders across our nation, who use Google mail (G-mail / Gmail).

In 2016, that percentage was around 60 pct.

This year, I looked at Ohio and found over 50 pct. of the GOP county leadership were using Google and/or Yahoo.

Convencience overrides privacy, property, rights, safety, and security.

Difficult to get that point across - that the social media “free” e-mail hosts, are reading their customer/member e-mail messages . . . and doing something leftist, about that.

Using the high tech rule, They Do It Because They Can (same rule used by liberals and leftists to corrupt - never mind decency, manners, principles of law and liberty) . . . I thereby ‘find’ that Google is probably sending daily assessments about what GOP leaders (with G-mail accounts) are communicating.

Because Google can - like Al Gore’s “in the absence of any legal authority.”

"Convencience overrides privacy, property, rights, safety, and security."

And "free".. Like the "free" Google web tools that webmasters are addicted to. Even Alex Jones who rants about how evil Google is uses them on his websites, and you can't even buy any of his products without Google collecting all of your data.

(At least FR seems to have finally gotten rid of its google bots. I complained about that for years.)

I've given all my friends and 'co-conspirators' email accounts on my servers, but some of them refuse to drop Gmail.

FreeRepublic.com is still using Google Analytics:

www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js

Thank you for trying to help your friends via private e-mail accounts.

"FreeRepublic.com is still using Google Analytics:..."

It used to show up in my NoScript toolbar but doesn't now...

I had to view page source to see that indeed it is still here.

I'm disappointed again.
