I don't think google should be held responsible for hackers doing their usual stuff. at the end of the day its the hacker's fault not google's. it does worry me that google has soo much useful info that it is appealing to hackers, and these people see google as a target to get our info.

Google sometimes does something... questionable, and thats always going to be like that. But as long as Google remains under good people, I think its great. Google does have A LOT of knowledge, and I love the fact they refused to turn over their search engine records... not for just a certain person because its needed for a criminal investigation, just asking for random samples of search engine data. I dont like that kinda stuff, I mean, I got nothing to hide, I just dont think the goverment should just get information like that because it wants it. Sure they had a good idea in mind, but how bout asking for all data on searches related to what they are trying to lock down (which was child pornography). If they had only asked for like the search terms and such used with many keywords related to that topic, then, yes, I wouldnt mind the records being given. But for just a random sample.... no....

Anyways, I think Google isnt evil, I believe they keep their information as best they can to themselves. Its just the security threats of hackers and other people outside the company that might try to get the information and use it in evil ways.

Google atleast allows us to earn something while others are doing the same thing without giving even a dime. So, why should I not use google. Let them benefit it and I too benefit. Since their approach is two-ways they are growing day by day. Not to speak about putting adsense in our websites they provide space like Googlepages and blogger.com where one is encouraged to earn through their pages or blogs. While others are asking users to create blogs and they put their advertisements. I think Google should grow larger and bigger for the interest of the users. Blogspot may not be the best blogging software but they care us to earn.

So, if google is stronger you are becoming stronger too since they grow with customers and users who are also growing.



If they are not this much smart they would be here today. Smart people are hard to oppose them or it is difficult to be opposing them. What you do is go well with them and make hay while you can. Unless you can threaten their own existence there's no point in giving any competition. So, for me I'm quite happy with Google. They are not generous but they are smart. When others don't give away like adsense but they do and this is a more shrewed and smarter move which everyone seems to be enjoying... I'm riding too....

i support gooogle because they really work for us.,they dont take money from advertisers for spams,when someone do spam clicks they dont take money from advertisers and advertisers might gets free clicks due to google.Google's paying rate is also good,so no doubt google is doing its best.

Evil Google? WIth buying YouTube recently after putting up Google Video search it may be one step closer to a monopoly. If you consider that an evil act, it could be true! Actually, Google is a company and just because it wants to make money dosn't mean that it wants to ruin any company.

As for the searches and the databases, isn't it a good thing that Google CAN expand instead of being close-minded like Yahoo or MSN searches? Can you find stuff on Google that you can't on Yahoo or MSN? Heck yes!

nyah Google aint evil, its just plain huge. Moreover Google cant afford to be deemed evil as its not microsoft. The point is that Google till this day is more of a convenience rather than a necessity(Microsoft very well is) and hence we conclude that Google may seem menacing or even intimidating to a few but its here to stay and grow.
