It's a free service people! No different then Hotmail, or Yahoo Mail,
or Gmail, AOL Instant Messenger, MSN Messenger... Use it if you want,
but if you don't, so be it. They're not holding a gun to your head.
Can you make that same statement when Google Chrome OS is released or
future versions of Android are released? It would be naive to think
that Google wouldn't try to default the DNS to there services with those
OS'...no "for profit" company does something for free without an
underlying motive.
I don't think people have problems necessarily with Google getting into
all this stuff, but at some point, if whatever users are doing always
has Google as an initial destination, it becomes a concern and I think
that is the underlying argument for most people
Just my 2 cents,
