    "Complaints against Google were made by Bharat Matrimony (a service that facilitates arranged marriages) and Consumer Unity and Trust Society (a nonprofit). Those complaints have since been backed up by 30 internet companies, including Facebook, Flipkart, and Nokia's maps division."
     
    Ironic, it seems to me.

    Before Google released their search engine trying to find anything on the web was a PITA requiring a strict structure when you entered your search parameters.

    I still dont see them as the bad guy. They have become a bit more aggressive with ads (Youtube anyone?) but I just block it all so doesnt bother me. And then you have the whole information gathering and selling thing, right to be forgotten, etc. Again doesnt bother me cause I block ads and besides they're going to see that I google computer, car, and motorcycle stuff big whoop.

    still man, they would sell your mother into slavery without a second thought if they could get away with it. Googles new motto should be "anything to make a buck"
