Don't be evil

A Christian group in Britain is suing Google over the search engine's alleged refusal to place an ad related to abortion.

Google rejected the ad with the statement, "Google policy does not permit the advertisement of websites that contain 'abortion and religion-related content'.
The Christian Institute counters that "Google is happy to allow adverts for non-religious sites with views on abortion," and is taking the Internet giant to court on grounds of religious discrimination.

Sorry, boys & girls. Enlisting parasites lawyers for this fight ain't the way to go. Googlag is a publicly traded corporporation, but, like most publishing businesses, it retains the right to refuse or accept content. The exception might be to present googlag as 'quasi-monopoly' and attack it under anti-trust laws. Hey, it work for the parasite infested extortion of microsoft, even though there are much better op-sys & browsers in the world. But the big dog is the big target.

I think the best bet is to simply not advertise with the googlag dis-information scubber. The reader of this blog (thanx mom!) can look to the upper right side on this blog to see links for googlag ad alternatives.

Don't be evil. Don't use googlag. Ask.com is a good start.
