Off The Cuff

Google Intrudes Again And Again In Our Lives

Posted by: From Arkansas in Are You Kidding Me?, It's A Rant on Feb 21 2008

Welcome back!

Personally, I have had about enough of G**gle intruding in our lives. It started, for me, with what our part of the world called a slapdown…meaning that something called a “page rank” that G**gle assigned to us. Companies that pay people to blog go by that particular ranking number. Why? I do not know since it has become the world’s biggest problem to those of us who get paid to blog on the net.

For some time now, I have been against G**gle having any say in my life. The fact that my income is down considerably since that happened has been weighing on me heavily. G**gle does not care one bit that we small time bloggers are getting hurt by this little tantrum of theirs. See, they have a “terms of service” that they apply to people even if they did not want the “service” in the first place. I didn’t. But a couple of the companies I work for do use that service, the page ranking, so it does affect me regardless if I wanted any of that or not.

Have we established that this company, forever named googoo for it’s childish ways, is greedy and barbaric? I hope so. There are those that say googoo is within it’s right to do as it pleases because it is a private company answering to it’s stockholders who have more power than we small bloggers. That would be true if they were private but they are not. Still, it is true that they could just about do what they want. Yet, is that a good idea? Surely they have to answer for the fact that they take stay at home Moms’ income away, steal the dollars from the disabled and the low income people. Surely they must answer for this because they surely DO know that’s what they are doing. Does anyone else know this? Doubtful.

And now the best of the best. Googoo is now going to take the medical records of those who hand them over. It is password protected so that you could not even get at your OWN records. And why would such a company need such records? I dunno. Maybe so that they could gather yet MORE information on each individual on the net and a few more??? Is that possible?

If you have read much of what I write, you are well aware that I am totally against the actions of the googoo corporation who are trying their hardest to steal all income from anyone that is not them. They are greedy, vindictive, nasty people. And now those greedy, vindictive, nasty people want charge of YOUR medical records. And you have to wonder why??? I know I do. Their reasonable (yeah right) reason is so that you can store your records online in a safe environment. Uh huh. And then what? Since they say they keep every record of searches online and now they are going to keep every record they gather in the medical field as well, what do they want to do with that information?

I can answer one thing. Every time they had information on bloggers, they tried to destroy their income. Does that make you shiver when you know they will have your medical records? It does make me shiver. Our future, at one time in this country of USA, was bright. It no longer is that. Our country, at one time, was about hard work…honor, integrity, compassion. Now it’s about greed, self serving, lies and more greed. And G**gle is at the top of the list in that regard. I will make a prediction here. IF G**gle does not fall because of it’s own actions, it will become a behemoth online that will be a terror to those who try to go up against it. Watch out. You may be next.
