11. google is a lot more than a search website

google has gmail, google maps (the cars that drive around maping us), and google docs to name a few. google basically wants to own the internet. google is mining user experiences every minute of every day. If you browse at a store and then see an ad for the exact thing you were browsing for, that's google.

googles motto of "don't be evil" isn't saying they aren't evil, it's admonishing us not to be evil.

I would love to see google broken up, they have way to much information and power. Same for facebook. twitter, I don't know how much information they collect so can't comment.

It would be ironic if for all the help FB and google gave trumpft to be broken up by trumpft.
