[OT] Yahoo, MSN, AOL = Satan, Google=God

Apparently Google is the only search engine you can trust. All of
Yahoo, MSN, and AOL recently complied with a judicial order to turn
over a week's worth of searches under the ostensible guise of
preventing easy access for children to pornography. There are so many
things wrong with this I don't have time to get into them, but let's
just say this ... what with the recent news of unwarranted and illegal
wiretapping on US citizens, do we REALLY want even more spying? Do you
want the government to know all of your searches? (Which is what they
would inevitably end up doing.) Do you want to lose every last shred
of privacy you had on the Internet? Of course not. Which is why you
should never use Yahoo, MSN, or AOL for your Internet searches, as they
are rolled over as soon as the Justice Department came knocking. Only
Google refused to offer up the information, denouncing it as the
invasion of privacy it really is.
