Google nowadays is so not linux, i can't believe this is even
considered. What is 'free' about Google in the sense of our community
(sinds people are paying heavily for 'free' service with big chunks of
their sellable privacy, even 'not for money' isn't true), how valid is
the argument "Users like the Google results."? O-m-g.
