This is the price we pay for being able to find out the answer to any possible question in a matter of seconds. I love Google..but I fear it too…
Agreed. They have some really great programs, but I also fear the size it is getting at (and I believe that many people as well are fearing it as a monopoly).
The one thing I do give Google credit for has been its ability to really keep its data about people secure and not somehow leak out or get stolen to spammers, phishers, etc. That really is, in my opinion, how Google has been able to continue its growth without people fearing Google earlier on.
