at least their meglomania has been accompanied by efficiency, so far.

I think it's time for some patent reform. Nobody seems to be angry at the patent office for handing all this candy out to the big boys.

I suggest people take a moment to let their brains wrap around this one. Really. Google: where our real mottos are "Controlling freedom, one step at a time", and "Who's your daddy?! Oh, yeah, you like that, don't you?" Forget that "don't be evil nonsense"; it's a joke.

"Oh, but it's just the employees, not google itself." Yeah, so? Some people have them; that's the point. And those somebodys are hooked into the google corporation. Those are some nice cards to hold, no?
