Google Relists Operation Clambake

DarkZero writes: "After almost every tech site and individual geek banded together to either carry the story about Google's delisting of Operation Clambake or flat-out protest it, Google has apparently relisted Xenu.net. Searches for 'xenu' and 'scientology' list Operation Clambake as the first and fourth results, respectively. The search for "scientology" also lists a story from C|Net about Google delisting Operation Clambake, as well as a protest ad from a Kuro5hin reader (oc3)." Update: 03/22 12:52 GMT by M : We jumped the gun. Google only relisted Xenu.net's homepage (where the copyright claims by Scientology were clearly bogus), not the rest of the pages listed in Scientology's DMCA complaint. Some Google sysadmin is getting aggravated because every 20 minutes, another memo from management is coming down telling him to alter the live database.

    After all the money I spent to get to OT-2, you'd THINK the cult leaders^W^Wguys in charge would've sent out a more threatening letter, or at least sent it on more expensive (and, thus, more threatning) letterhead.

    Guess I need to spend some more money to get to OT-3.

      Well, once you reach OT-3, you should be able to shut down Google using your mind powers alone.


      Perhaps you are't clear?

      What's your misunderstood word?


      I think this auditing course, which only costs ...the remaining balence in your checking accound... should get you clear and operating.

    There's a scientology center close to where I go to school. The billboard out front say "Scientology - think for yourself."

    First time I drove past that, I was laughing so hard I nearly drove off the road.

    "What about religions with no centralized structure to distribute money or to wield any power?"

    Yay for p2p religions!

    (That's when everyone you talk to seems to be slower than you and it takes a long time to get the message across).
