I just don't like Google. I know I will get flac for that. You are welcome to e-mail me at my google e-mail address about it. But Google Docs, Earth, Wave, Google Soul, Google is my Father, and all that other under supported, under developed crap they can keep.

And don't defend them to me because I have contacted them on several occasion about stuff being broken, non-functional, or incorrect. All I ever get is "Well its in Beta" or "We don't support that because we built the delivery service, not the application." Google, F--k you.

[citation][nom]m3kt3k[/nom]LOLS. Whats funny is everyone is defending Google but if the Govt was doing this the same people would be flippen out saying the GOVT has no right to spy on them.[/citation]

Precisely. Everyone is completely hypocritical when it comes to privacy.

And what do you mean "IF" the government was doing this? They do it everyday.

This is nothing more than just another government shakedown of a large company for the simple purpose of revenue collection. It's basically extortion by fiat. Quite frankly, I'm pretty tired of this kind of crap. If it were my company, I would blackout Switzerland. "You don't like an aspect of our service? Fine, you don't get it then." Have a nice little webpage, in Swiss and English of course, apologizing for the lack of access and explaining why (or maybe just a high resolution JPG of my middle finger).
