“The privacy struggle, which includes both the old issue of consumer protection and this new issue of government surveillance, means that the question of how Google treats the data it collects from users becomes critical. Given that Google is so central to the web, whatever attitude it takes toward privacy has massive implications for the rest of the web in general, and for other search engines in particular.”

“Call it class warfare, if you like. Because that brings up the other major gripe that Google Watch has with Google. That’s the PageRank problem — the fact that Google’s primary ranking algorithm has less to do with the quality of web pages, than it has to do with the “power popularity” of web pages. Their approach to ranking is anti-democratic, in that already-powerful pages are mathematically granted extra power to anoint other pages as powerful.”

“It’s not that we believe Google is evil. What we believe is that Google, Inc. is at a fork in the road, and they have some big decisions to make. This Google Watch site is trying to articulate and publicize the situation at Google, and encourage more scrutiny of their operations. By doing this, we hope to play a small part in maintaining the web as an information tool that is more useful for the masses, than it is for the elites.”

“Finally, Google has an $11 billion hoard of cash and investments and the power to stifle competition. And there’s even cocktail party chatter in Silicon Valley and Washington, D.C., about whether the Google juggernaut needs to be reigned in by anti-trust regulators.”

“There is one other Google executive, Eric Schmidt, who was hired as the Chairman of Google Inc. since March 2001 and CEO since August of 2001. Eric Schmidt`s donation record is very different than those of Larry Page and Sergey Brin. Schmidt`s record shows donations that mainly go to Democratic candidates, and when he does give to a Republican it is generally one of the more liberal Republican Candidates. His contributions have totaled $260,716 with $6,500 to Republicans, $229,216 to Democratic candidates, and $25,000 to special interest groups which consist of various PACs including Google`s NetPAC.”

“In closing, Bob Stern, president of the Center for Governmental Studies in Los Angeles and an expert on money in politics says that Google will back the political party in power. While Google is contributing to Republicans since a Republican is currently in power, it`s most likely that they won`t hesitate to fund a Democratic candidate if they win the election in November.”
