    Bill Gates used illegal monopoly to take from everyone.

    The libraries here still use billshit's os.

    Why is there a stinking google newsbit on slashdot every few days.

    I find their searches are becoming more WORTHLESS and filled with BUSINESS SPAMMING THEIR SHIT. I am finding less information and more "Buy this book if you need this info" or I am being clandestinely lured to sites that are commercial which i don't want. This shouldn't surprise anyone. They are out to make more money so they probably have tilted rankings to crappy businesses or maybe their search engine sucks a little less than yahoo.
