			<description><![CDATA[ Thanks, Glenn. That's essentially my point. Taking a critical look at what happened and why, as well as what is done to prevent a recurrence, should play into our final evaluation. Yeah, there was a screw-up, every company has them. I think the best criteria for evaluation is what they do to rectify it.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Intentional or not, people working for them are doing harm. If one of us had someone working for us go out and buy links, or make a 10,000 XRummer profile run, Google would not be very forgiving. They would trash the site doing it with zero recourse for the person affected. We aren't given a free pass by saying, oops, someone else did it, and as the holder of the keys to the internet, they shouldn't get to either. It shows a basic lack of training and culture on their part that these things even happen in their name.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Sorry Barry but I have to take issue with you regarding the idea that Government generally seaking means well. IMO Government (and here I am talking about the US government) , is run mostly on the basis of "what is good for politicians is good for the country". Granted sometimes they get things right, but I have my suspicions whether that is because it is the right thing to do or because it will be perceived as doing the right thing and that will result in more votes. Google certainly is not squeaky clean, and by and large they do what is best for Google. In many cases that happens to be what is best for the public too, and they will let us know about that.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Sorry Doc, gonna have to disagree with you on this one. For every member of the lynch-mob there are at least half a dozen braindead fanboys who just swallow whatever Google says wholesale without ever applying an ounce of critical thinking. In fact, these fanboys - Cuttzombies you might call them - truly and genuinely believe that Google is this happy-jolly-world-improvement company that has the betterment of humankind as its highest goal. See for example this Google+ post: https://plus.google.com/117388252776312694644/posts/FFLWzCkPDGZ and the endless adoration heaped upon the big G in the comments. There are way too many of those sorts of folks out there. So that's why we need the lynch-mob. That's why the critics need to be all the louder, so that hopefully in the end common sense might prevail and Google will be seen for what it really is - a capitalist corporation with profit-maximisation as its core focus. Also, your distrust of government betrays your American education. It's not government that is the problem - it's the corporate influence on government that is, in my view, the root of all evil. Government generally speaking means well. It's just that without corporate approval (read: campaign funding), government can't get anything done.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Hear hear ! Last year (and unfortunately this year) seems like the "year of the mob." Your same argument could be made to the "Occupy Wallstreet" contingent. What mobs do best is make broad generalizations about the groups they want to demonize, cheered on by politicians who are glad the negative attention is on someone else for a change. People are understandably upset that, for more complex reasons than most of us can understand, we are in a recession, times are hard and jobs are scarce. And there really are criminals (both inside and outside of large organizations) and those folks should be brought to justice. But to complain because companies act in the interest of their shareholders is, when you think about it, a little strange. Especially since the retirement of a large portion of the US population depends upon, at the very least, their ownership of funds which in turn own those very companies. So, I think it's okay to be pissed that the life boats aren't here yet. Let's just not be pissed off enough that we burn the lifeboats.]]></description>
