Re: Google - It is getting worse for us
"Google is EVIL I tell you, EVIL. Avoid at all costs."
It's like Linux fanbois blaming MS for Linux's failure to attracting customers amongst either the general population or on desktops and laptops of regular business users. If MS being evil was a problem people would be fleeing TO Linux (or, if money didn't matter, Apple).
The article is about why customers have fled FF and aren't returning. Your theory that it has to do with Google being evil doesn't fit reality.
The theory that Google is a hidden evil that people are generally ignorant of doesn't make sense either, since their supposed evil has to do with advertising that everyone sees everywhere in their products.
People know about the advertising, but they choose to see it as either non-evil or less evil.
Remember that outside of IT a large percentage of the population works in retail, marketing, or sales, and even tradespeople are generally aware that their own employers and their own jobs depend on advertising. People don't see themselves as being evil. They usually find undirected shotgun advertising a timewaster, but they don't see advertising as 'evil'.
Certainly Google's advertising (even on Youtube) is not as bothersome as what we get on TV.
