Interesting thing I read about Google
 
May be old news to some, but I found it....interesting.

"The most remarkable thing about Google is not their "Don't be evil" mantra, but that so many forget to gag on it. For starters, Google is the biggest privacy invader in history. They track the search terms you use with a unique ID number in a cookie that expires in 2038. If you have ever given Google your e-mail address, then this ID can identify you as a person. When you sign up for News Alerts or to post on newsgroups, or indicate an interest in a Gmail account, or request that Google delete your telephone number with its zoom-in street map to your house, they associate your e-mail address with your cookie ID. This single cookie, and the information associated with it, is shared among all of Google's services."

I was just reading an interview they did with Playboy about how they don't allow hard liquor to be advertised on Google but they allow wine to be advertised.

and to think they just asked to be able to dump another 4.2 billion dollars of shares on the market so they can have their cash reserves at over 7 billion with no debt.
Of course they claim they are not going to buy any major company.
:winkwink:
