I believe that the message you are answering to is just random spam of the kind that tends to happen on debian/alioth hosted mailing lists: it's the price we have to pay for open posting policies. anyway > FreedomBox is alread found through Google, but I believe FreedomBox > prefers decentralized non user-abusing services, and I guess it will > employ such a search engine (like Yacy for example). > > Paying to be found in Google would be a strange way to spread its > message... Being on Google with a decent ranking *is* important for FreedomBox: people who are already using Yacy have probably already stumbled on it, and are probably proficient enough to install its components by hand on their home servers. The people who need to know about FreedomBox are those that are still on Google, and only now realising that there are implications for their privacy, but they don't know enough to build their own solution. Of course, there are good methods and bad methods for "being on Google", and paying a random "SEO expert" is definitely not among the good ones. -- Elena ``of Valhalla'' _______________________________________________ Freedombox-discuss mailing list Freedombox-discuss@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/freedombox-discuss
