Google should have been sued in to oblivion early on unless they PAID every web site they indexed $$$ for their property. They built their company on other peoples sweat.

That would apply to any search engine, not just Google. Other people's sweat has no value if you can't find it!

You're a blithering idiot!

With all due respect his post did not warrant that level of attack

I mean really......he’s a blithering idiot for saying that?

I’d hate to see you really pissed at a truly blithering idiot.

I know its tuff living behind enemy lines.....aren’t all Yankee conservatives moving to Texas?

So be nice.

Funny thing....right wing non southerners might be all can stop Texas from going Dem with the brown wave streaming in

I've been around here for years and that's about the harshest thing anyone ever has ever said to me.

I've been in the technology industry for a long time. I've participated and watched the genesis and growth of the Internet since the beginning. I've invented a lot of software, beta tested a lot of hardware, built data centers and handled billions of records. Idiot? Sure, at times but I believe in property rights and google built their company on property owned by others. That is something you cannot dispute no matter how smart you may think you are.

Anyone that watched the genesis of google could see that they had a really bright idea. Good for them. But to say that they have some right to other peoples content was and still is wrong headed from a property rights standpoint. I could provide you with numerous analogies regarding property you may likely own that if the possession and use of such property was infringed upon you in the same fashion google infringes on property you would likely think it prudent to take up arms. But I suspect such things would exceed the height of your the apex between your ears.

Considering you line of thinking I wonder if you think it absurd or ironic that today google polices and scrubs content that they decide is unworthy of providing. Recently they decided to censor (yea, I understand the true meaning of the word) web pages that may have words that say things like "gun for sale". If they can decide what content to provide or not provide cannot you see the comedy in your "first amendment" assertion?

The idea that what is yours is yours but it is mine too is a very odd to me. How anyone can think that simply because something like google is a valuable tool that means that they should realize profit off the work of others is indeed idiot to me. But, the cat is out of the bag when it comes to google and a lot of other electronic systems that hold and provide information either constructed by other or ON others.
