The Democrats have named uber-billionaire plutocrat Eric Scmidt to its election post-mortem group, Bloomberg.com has revealed.
It’s just something for those of you not inclined to automatically push the D button to think about the next time you use a Google product.
Do you really want the enemy to track your every move?
During the midterm election cycle, Schmidt donated $60,000 to Democratic congressional candidates and chipped in $250,000 to Senate Majority PAC.
We guess the joke is on the OWS types who voted for Obama et al to stick it Wall Street and the “crony capitalists”.
We suggest that for searches one use DuckDuckGo. Their politics may not be the same as ours but truthfully we don’t know as they don’t make an issue of it. Regardless, they don’t track you.
Further, they are based in the neighborhood, Paoli, so that’s a bonus.
For web browsing, avoid Chrome. We use Firefox. If you can’t overlook their recent political cravenness, try Opera or stick to Safari if you have a Mac.
But don’t give aid and comfort to something that is obviously the opponent of freedom and a friend to feudalists

I use http://www.duckduckgo.com as a search engine.
I’m stuck with Firefox, because we use it at work. Otherwise, I’d ditch it because of their cowardly totalitarian action.
It was pretty cowardly and certainly anti-freedom. No way I’m I using Chrome though.
I thought about just using Safari but I doubt if Apple is any better.
I stopped using Firefox when I heard that they fired their CEO after they found out that he had donated money in favor of Prop. 8, a California ballot initiative that barred same-sex marriage in the Golden State. Note that he donated this FIVE YEARS AGO! Take a look! Find some other site!
