I may have strong tastes but I'm not stupid enough to presume I'm going to tell Google how to go about their business. I just can't help but notice that after all these years, they are still making the majority of their money on ads -- not on making something that is valuable enough to people that they will pay for it in a straightforward transaction. So, isn't it ironic then that an ad company will pay other ad companies to create ads to draw in users that they can then turn around and basically sell back to the industry?
