There needs to be an option in the advanced search options that says, "[x] I'm not an idiot".
There is. Left bar -> More Search tools -> Verbatim
"With the Verbatim tool, you can search using the exact keywords you typed," explains Google. Verbatim disables Google's spelling corrections and Google no longer replaces some of your keywords with synonyms (e.g.: television / TV), similar terms (e.g: buy flowers / send flowers), words with the same stem (e.g.: fixing / fix). Verbatim also disables search personalization.

Vaccum? Are we talking about the company that's suing others for having their own implementation of Microsoft's incredibly innovative algorithm that turns "reallybigfilename.txt" into "REALLY~1.TXT" and stores both?
Based on what? They did punish their own browser due to the sponsored results, so they obviously care about been seen as impartial (regardless of what actually motivates that desire).
Actually, it still belongs to the poster. They just have a "royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, transferable license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, perform, and display such Content (in whole or part) worldwide and/or to incorporate it in other works in any form, media, or technology now known or later developed".
Which means, they can do whatever they want with it, but so do we. If they actually owned the copyright, we'd need to ask their permission to use the comments outside of/.
I think the main differences are that it uses email addresses instead of an URL (which people don't "get" as being your identity token) and it doesn't give the authorities full power to access your accounts (since the private key for authentication is stored on the browser).
I think the JS part is true, but the centralization is only temporary until there are Primary Identity Authorities (which would be mostly email providers, from what I can tell).
I don't know anything that no one else knows. I have no idea where did you get that idea.
As for they not doing anything, of course they can. They'll raise the taxes on the stuff you burn until you can't afford to pollute. Here we have a new tax on the electricity to pay for subsidies for renewables.
What do you think I was talking about? Using force? Ha. Who needs that when you control the taxman.
Let me tell you how it will be There's one for you, nineteen for me 'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman
Should five per cent appear too small Be thankful I don't take it all 'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah I'm the taxman
If you drive a car, I'll tax the street, If you try to sit, I'll tax your seat. If you get too cold I'll tax the heat, If you take a walk, I'll tax your feet.
Don't ask me what I want it for If you don't want to pay some more 'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman
Now my advice for those who die Declare the pennies on your eyes 'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman And you're working for no one but me.

You can disable the G+ personalization in the Search settings.

Click on the Settings icon -> Search Settings -> Do not use personal results.
There, that wasn't so hard.
Personally, I just don't have a G+ account due to the other issues that are in my opinion way worse than personalized search.
Considering sites with their ads will be removed from the equation
They will? Where did you read that?
You are likely correct.

We don't need SOPA and PIPA as currently written, but we need something.
Do we?
Which places are those?
Those passwords aren't stored in a database, but in the shadow file.
Not necessarily. SSH can validate the passwords using PAM, and PAM can use a database (e.g. Postgres or LDAP) as backend.

Of course they do. All (new) material is copyrighted. Even this post.
The time has come for reasonable measures to be taken to discourage this theft.
That video is outdated. We're already in the extremely unreasonable measures.
Yahoo is just a layer above Bing, might as well use it directly.

For Office, there's Sironta. Server-less P2P collaboration that works on the three major OSs. It's AGPLv3 licensed.
Just like every sign up that asks for your email, which is almost all of them.
How is Mozilla trying to force anything?
It's only centralized until there are other providers. http://lloyd.io/how-browserid-works
It stores a private key in your browser that you need to auth yourself (transparently to the user).
I think the main differences are that it uses email addresses instead of an URL (which people don't "get" as being your identity token) and it doesn't give the authorities full power to access your accounts (since the private key for authentication is stored on the browser).
OpenID is for logging in too, and BrowserID also authenticates through an authority (the Primary Identity Authorities).
I think the JS part is true, but the centralization is only temporary until there are Primary Identity Authorities (which would be mostly email providers, from what I can tell).

Your error is assuming that anyone wants to completely stop CO2 production, when no one advocated that. You're arguing against a strawman.
Also, nobody needs to arrest you, just cut off your supply of dirty energy. Preferably providing cleaner energy instead.
