i think this whole google debacle and backlash highlights one thing:
independent media
–> and more importantly - the need for it.
as we all know and can see, this is of paramount importance. essentially Google in going down this route is seriously compromising any independence it may have had.
State-sponsored media - ah well..not very interesting for a lot of us.
VIVA INDYMEDIA!ÂÂ
is a good way of putting it. so now my hand”s been bitten, my custom”s going somewhere else. Bye Bye Google Bye Bye..
oh yeah and i daresay if anyone has any bright ideas re: protests outside google”s offices in London - this is where they are:
Belgrave House
76 Buckingham Palace Road
Just think -for argument”s sake - if anything happened and somehow those poor offices end up being defaced - ah well, i suppose we”d never find out would we? they won”t be able to get “justice” - why? well who”s going to bear witness to it? ….;-) see no evil, hear no evil..
