From the desk of Mindles H. Dreck:My Fairy GodGovernment
Mark Wickens has penned this post on Googlewatch , who believe that Google should be a public utility. What a pristine example of faulty statist logic.
As all you Google-bombers know, Google is successful because it sorts returns by link popularity (Page Rank). Google has become important because this feature reflects what we want from a search engine. Those who have been sorted down resort to the backwards logic that Google is now determining who is popular rather than reflecting it. Google must be regulated and controlled, so it focuses its attention on the "right" search returns!
At which point, Google would become utterly useless, "hot" only in the sense of "stolen".
