Google rocks. Just don't click on the sponsored links to the right and above. That's how they make their money.

Thanks for the information. We are fighting a war on many fronts.

I'm getting annoyed with Google. Anyone have any recommendations for alternatives?

I predicted that goog would take it down. It told the truth.

So is there anywhere lese the good video is posted? And did Google give a reason?

One thing that may be going on is that liberals may be more willing to complain and try to get content banned. Contrary to what one might read elsewhere...

The makers of that video may have asked Google to remove it. They are, after all, offering it for sale.

Don't know. The movie is coming out on DVD.

Perhaps the film owners asked it to be removed. Was it an officially sanctioned listing?

I have been told that it was taken down due to a complaint from a copyright holder. Under the DMCA google has no choice but to comply. I mean they are selling it for 19.95 so the owners of the video might not like having it available for free.

You said -- I watched with fascination the documentary Obsession on Google video. The documentary about the Islamic war on the West quickly moved up the most viewed and rated films until it was removed by Google."

Well, it would be removed for good reason. The people who produced it are using it for fund raising and are also selling it.

I paid good money (for their fund raising efforts) to get it now. I've had it for over a month, now. I don't think it's available to the public, yet -- but will soon be.

I've only ever used google as a search engine. And I deny them JS and cookies and I never click on ads or other stuff. All that other stuff like e-mail and whatever, I haven't even looked at, let alone touched.

And their search engine is starting to bog down, probably due to having to service all that other crap.

You have to say that publishing terrorist reports with the Trade Center in cross-hairs was rather prescient.

I refuse to use Google.

Any company whos motto is "Do no evil" and does stuff like this will never get a bit of my support.

Furthermore, their censoring of conservatives by calling their work "hate speech" due to calling Islam the death cult it is was the nail in the coffin.

Screw 'em.

If you value liberty, do not use Google.

Cheers,

Why the surprise? Google explains it's agreement to help the Chinese dictators impose political censorship as "just the following the law", which is a frank admission that they see moral equivalency with the "law" (decree) of a dictator and the laws people in a free society make. Their greed is no different than any corrupt corporation, in spite of all their "free speech" and "net neutrality" self-promotion here in the west.

There is something far worse than any economic corruption, and that is moral and political corruption, like the lefties at Goggle practice.
