Story: Google: An Apology
Well said. Speaking as a US technology worker with over twenty (yes, I'm getting grey) years in the field, it is good to see someone who is not afraid of pointing out the obvious despite the current PC environment within which we dwell. When a company which is so vocal about it's "goodness" does something so at odds with the PR department's propaganda, someone should have the courage to pint it out. Since that is not going to happen on this side of the pond, it's good to see that our ancestral homeland still supports both critical observation skills, and a bit of witty writing.
Cheers!
Regards,
Jon
