    I find it totally insane for Google to say they are "protecting privacy around the world". Actually Google is a monopoly now offering franchises on search results. The Google bots (created by humans)stalk anyone's personal/private (we thought or hope)replies on anyone's sites. It's kind of a joke don't you think? Google is creating the ultimate blacklist database. Nothing anyone writes on the Internet will ever be protected. Something very wrong here. I'm tired of big business masquerading as concerned for the populace's welfare. They could give a rat's ass about my privacy. Their ultimate goal is to pocket as much change possible. To hell with the end results! Do we, the people, look stupid to you? I guess people are catching on to search engines ways and starting to talk. Welcome to capitalism 101. Very dangerous what Google is doing here. Ad farms are growing like a cancer. Google has the market. Bombard us under false pretenses and you might not get the business for long. For those using Google to their advantage all is good. I only feel sorry for those poor bastards who think anything they write is being protected. Do we, the people, look stupid to you? Last time I checked it worked that we capitalist consumers demand and you supply. As quickly as we patronized you we can reverse order.

    I am a new bus driver, and began a blog about my experience training and on-the-job learning; it attracted some readers, and the company's in=house newsletter editor, and the union newsletter's editor, both want me to write for them, which is great. Not so great is the call I got today saying I've been put on "administrative leave" (i.e. not driving the rest of my shift today or tomorrow) and will be attending, tomorrow, a meeting of the company and my union to discuss this blog. Seems they liked the blog at first and then when I said a few critical things changed their minds, to the point where my job may be a stake.
    So any thoughts about blogging employees who were only trying to put a human face on what its like to be a new bus driver?
