It brings me to tears to see google doing this… I thought they were cool, I guess they are just players… playing with my heart!

Yeah, even back when I was trying to find bittorrent software–and learn more about it–Google was useless. Have you noticed that Wikipedia entries come up last (how convenient, it begins with a “W”)? They are on the one hand crushing the rights of copyright holders, and on the other hand stroking the gob’ment.

It IS pretty handy in general, though!

just a straight search of “torrents” doesn’t show any DMCA notice or filtering of any kind…

Funny, I type in ’sumotorrent’ and it comes up. No notice of any filtering or anything.

Yeah I still like google… I dunno guys, seems like they are only looking out for their wellbeing, which, if that means iGoogle, googledocs, gmail, and gcal get to stay, I’m fine. What’s teh big problem with Google anyways?
