No, it wasn't. The companies he was talking about made war machines, gas
chambers, and torchure devises. Google is a search engine, not a Sherman
Tank. Google mines data, it doesn't make mines. Google doesn't kill or maim
or rape or destroy. It's a *SEARCH ENGINE*. And, due to the nature of the
Internet, Google is everywhere. It's in the best country in the world
(whatever you think that is) and the worst (again, which one that is is up
to you). Comparing a website that filters out certain links to other
websites due to local laws to a company that built gas chambers and death
camps for Hitler is far from apples and oranges. At least apples and oranges
are both fruit. This is more like comparing apple and Totem polls.
