I don’t know about google. They are not on our side. That is for sure. Am a little surprised by the level of insults posted here though. You’d think maybe we could be more “civil”...like at du or something. Wow.

What he’s getting at is an add that says “also try obituary” has been hardlinked to google searches for Lt Col West.

I did a search on Lt Col Allen West and did NOT get the obituary ad.

[trisham]

I hope so.

[WestySimas]

I found the same thing. I’m not surprised.

[Netizen]

I just did a search on Allen West and no ad at all.

[Netizen]

Not only that but posted in news? lol

[Repeal The 17th]

I use firefox w/adblock - so I never see any of those ads.

[Netizen]

Yes, but a LOT of people do use google. It has the potential to be very influential. And, remember, the fight we are fighting is one in which ignorance and brainwashing are tools.

And we should replace that with paranoia?

[little jeremiah]

I am surprised, too.

Google has accused Bing of hijacking their results (which Bing doesn't deny). If true, Bing users are in effect still using Google:

Excerpt:

Google has run a sting operation that it says proves Bing has been watching what people search for on Google, the sites they select from Google’s results, then uses that information to improve Bing’s own search listings. Bing doesn’t deny this. As a result of the apparent monitoring, Bing’s relevancy is potentially improving (or getting worse) on the back of Google’s own work. Google likens it to the digital equivalent of Bing leaning over during an exam and copying off of Google’s test.

Bing doesn’t deny Google’s claim. Indeed, the statement that Stefan Weitz, director of Microsoft’s Bing search engine, emailed me yesterday as I worked on this article seems to confirm the allegation.

Not really. But obviously you wish to discount my contributions to FR without bothering to notice. Wouldn’t have expected that from you. Glad I put this thread up now. I am learning something I wish I wasn’t.

I know. Don't let it distract you. We have too many battles ahead of us for that.

He has an anger management problem.

I offered him a couple of ideas, he should be grateful!
