Selling truth would make more money than lies
For those reading French, please read my comment posted 16/10/2003 ? 22h37 on a french board ( http://www.materiel.be/viewnews.php?n=2929 ). In English:

Google is getting what it deserves - too bad it gets it from a country acting only by chauvinism, theft and lie.

Google's fault is to sell lies to advertizers, instead of selling truth to visitors. Acting right would bring at the same time less risks and more money; "bad ethics is bad business".

Now monopoles aren't concerned here. BTW it's funny to see the country of SNCF {National Company of RailWays}, France-T?l?com, EDF (Electricit? de France), CSA {Audio-visual Supreme Commitee is ruling about everything in TV and movies}, charging Microsoft, and now Google, with monopoly. I recall that each of the three 1st {french} monopolies above makes, on 1/100 of the planet, about the same revenue as Microsoft does on the whole planet. Those who are never ashamed to be from this country, look at yourselves in the mirror before going to bed...
