Buster Wilson today suggested conservatives boycott Google for the search engine and advertising giant’s recently announced “Legalize Love” campaign to decriminalize homosexuality around the world.

Wilson, general manager of the American Family Association‘s radio stations . . . acknowledges a boycott against Google “is going be tough,” and will “test the meat of our convictions.”:

"I said that I did not want to support any efforts like this, in fact, we are a part of boycotting efforts similar to this with other businesses. This is going to be hard for a lot of us. A lot of us are so integrated into Google and Google products, this is going to be a tough one. It’s more than just a search engine — many of us have Android phones the Android system is a Google product. Many of us use Google calendar and Google task, and Gmail, and all those kinds of things. YouTube and all the other things — it’s not just the search engine. So this is going be tough. This one’s going to be one of those situations where I guess we’ll test the meat of our convictions."

Well, someone in the youtube comments had pointed this out - but they are saying that it was not AFA, but RightWing Watch which uploaded it to youtube. I guess if AFA is going to attempt a Google boycott which is in any way effective, they are going to need a list of all venues owned and operated by the giant Google.

Ixquick/Startpage
DuckDuckGo

Can someone recommend an conservative alternative to gmail?

My computer says the security certificate for Ixquick is not valid. It recommends not using the site.

I got the same thing with IXQUICK - it is upsetting that Google is so prominent and the leader of SEO. Thus does it join the rainbow pride global agenda and wages this campaign with confidence.
