Google's Knight Bashes Malkin
Topics: Search Engines
Google Current host Conor Knight takes a cheap shot at Michelle Malkin. Noting that her name is one of the top rising searches, Knight opines, "The general consensus is that much like Ann Coulter, she is smart, pretty and basically thrives on saying and writing absurd stuff." From what group of imaginatively ignorant Google groupies did this opinion appear?
An example of Malkin's absurdity, according to Knight, is her disclosure of Those Lying Imams who incited riots by fabricating offensive cartoons, one of which was actually a picture taken from a a pig squealing contestant. And, he didn't mention her report on Google's complicity with communist censorship.
P.S. There go our chances at ever achieving decent Google Search engine ratings .... (sorry Richard)

Subject: Freedom's Just Another Word At Yahoo!From Captain Ed - Internet giant Yahoo! joins Microsoft and Google in bending to the Chinese autocracy, only this time they helped jail an activist for freedom in the nominally Communist nation. The London Times reports that Yahoo! coughed up records used to send a dissident to prison for ten years:
THE American internet company Yahoo! provided evidence to Chinese police that enabled them to imprison one of its users, according to allegations that came to light yesterday.
The disclosure marked the second time in months that the company had been accused of helping China to put someone in jail. Li Zhi, a civil servant, was imprisoned on charges of trying to subvert state power after he criticised corruption and tried to join the dissident China Democracy Party. ...
Yahoo! said that it could not comment on an individual case. However, it said that it turned over to governments only legally required information. Mary Osako, at Yahoo! headquarters in California, said: “We would not know whether a demand for information focused on murder, kidnapping or another crime.” She added that Yahoo! regarded the internet as a positive force in China.
The journalist Shi Tao may not agree. He was jailed for ten years last year on charges of leaking state secrets after Yahoo! supplied Chinese police with his user identification.
Julien Pain, an internet expert with the Paris-based Reporters without Borders, believes that the revelation that Yahoo! had co-operated in two cases could be the tip of an iceberg. He said: “The problem is how many (cases) do we not know about? Probably dozens, given how hard it is to get information from China. Yahoo! should release a list of people they helped to jail.”
It seems power and success corrupt ...
