“ Seriously, how many advertisements have you ever seen on Google?”

I see them all the time. Just search for a product like lawnmower, and the top of the page has a bunch of “sponsored” results.

Companies pay money to Google to rank their products high on search results.

Wow, that’s right. I noticed that when I do a search on something I suddenly get emails on it from advertisers. Big mistake giving them my email. Thanks for explaining

I’m noticing more unfinished projects in Bay Area that haven’t been touched in months or years.

The old Naval Hospital site in Oakland has been torn down, cleaned up, streets and sidewalks laid, light fixtures and landscaping finished. Yet housing lots sit waiting for a builder to come in. Nothings happened there in 2 years.

If Sundar’s real job is to export as many jobs as possible to the craphole (India), the need for Bay Area housing disappears.

“$15 billion to build 15,000 homes. That comes out to $1,000,000 per home.”

Sometimes it pays to read the article.

Google will probably sell a lot of their land to developers and condos will get built. No doubt about it.

Google Abandons Massive Plan That Would Have Built 15,000 Homes Complete With Deluxe "Big Brother" Surveillance Package in San Francisco Area

Fixed it for them.


G**gle is the largest and most pervasive censor and manipulator of information that has ever existed ...






... at least in this planet.



It exists entirely to modify what you think by controlling what you see and read. If you use any G**gle product (without first making some technically astute modifications), you're as much as begging for a proctological exam every time you fire up a PC or handheld digital device.
