Well , I never said that Google didn't work extremely well . And it's not that I have anything to hide , but I take great exception to them mining my data and searches and selling it to third parties - whether it be the gov't or a marketing company . Haven't you ever wondered why the advertising on virtually every web page you visit seems to be tailored just for you ? That's because it is ! And while we're on the subject , I also use an ad blocker program . What makes them think they can use bandwidth I pay for to push their products on me ?
