How disgusted I was to find out the news that Google has gone to the dark side. Maybe it was already there. Maybe the power became too delicious to refuse. Maybe they have convinced themselves that this will be good for “the internet.” They have disappointed me, a loyal user, beyond belief. I am grateful for their email, google voice, adsense, youtube, ad manager and all. But I am ill to discover that they are ready to take the power they so easily took from us, the unsuspecting public.
Just remember, ass, grass or ass – nobody rides for free. And now google, after luring in billions of users, is turning around and fucking us by making an upcoming proposal with Verizon to start controlling how content is dispersed to users.

Twitter and Google have me running scared.¬† Recently, there was a web-wide virus attack where my own site had some weird code in it that alerted Google.¬† So far, so good, right?¬† You don’t want a virus attacking your own computer via a website.¬† But once the virus was cleared up and removed and even Google removed the warning, Twitter continues to leave my account suspended.¬† It’s the most frustrating thing ever.¬† I even navigated through their bizarre contact area in order to ask them (very nicely I thought) to remove my “suspended account” warning.¬† The lesson here is that the bigger these websites get, the bigger Google and Twitter get, the more control they have over everything and everyone.¬† Beware, folks.
