[citation][nom]Kajunchicken[/nom]As much as I understand why you guys disagree with Google being forced to do these things, it is just as bad to ignore Google as it gets bigger an bigger. A monopoly anywhere, particularly over the internet is a bad thing. If you control the majority of the internet, in many ways you control the world.Having no competition is also bad for innovation. Before Bing came along, Google was sitting pretty comfortably in the lead and their search format hadn't changed for years. As it became clear that there was going to be at least somewhat serious competition, Google started rolling out new features like instant search and previews. So while you may love Google, think about the advantages of preventing monopoly at the same time.[/citation]
Although, I am more likely to trust a company if they are investing their cash in other tech such as alternative power, hands- free driving, building out FIBER etc. What I see in America is an inability for other companies to compete and sit on their laurels, thereby raking in enormous profits and transferring that welath the the elite. I would much rather see someone like google challange that notion and bring out more FIBER (mwahahahaa) j/k We've been shakled by the big ISP's for years, time for tht to change.
(The big question is, what dow we do when google controls, serach, isp, automotive and power generation) I'll leave that to my kids to figure out. All for it if it brings down price.
