Posted by kdawson on from the not-the-g-drive dept.

    Boggle.

    It is so sad to get these reminders of just what a bunch of ignorant people fill the Net like counterplex.

    Let's just refresh everyone's memory of searchable Google Voice:

    * Google implemented search for Google Voice for people who decided to make their stuff public

    * Dumbasses in the media tried to spin it as some sort of privacy violation

    * Articles came out stating why the idiots babbling about privacy violation were spewing garbage since the only Google Voice stuff being indexed was stuff people decided to make public

    * Same dumbasses in the media came out with 'yeah, but...I still want to be mad at Google followup articles'

    Idiots like counterplex obviously just read the sensational headlines and parrot them as their own 'insight' into future stories.
