I can't believe this conspiracy theorist hasn't even figured out who GoogleGuy is.

I don't buy this:



Why would a little extra data storage require 1000 new index servers and a year of time? Why couldn't Google double their number of index servers in one week? Reindexing a table is not difficult. Mirroring everything offline is totally within their ability and budget.

Lastly, this idea contradicts the fundamental concept of Google's algoriithm, their branding, and their ability to plan. It looks like nothing but a cheap shot, worthy of Microsoft post thug disruption tactics.

I guess you didn't notice that it takes Dmoz about a week to do a database run, how long do you think changing a database with 4 billion records in it would take? All the while running fresh bot which is changing things.

I don't mean to say this crap is true, but I've never seen anyone else point something that makes sense? Kinda stupid that they've reverted back to page ranks that I had in February for my sites.

Whatever the problem is just fix the shit so I can get hits again.
