Do not mess with the people’s internet.
Support Police. Beat Yourself Up: Stop Using Google Search Please
Stop using Google. If you don’t know why, you’re not paying attention.
Of course you could switch to Start Page. But I have found it to be unattractive and not rich enough in features. The only feature they have that I admire is the proxy feature and that’s slow and not very practical for most…

US trade rep and hotel caught lying about confidentiality of secret copyright treaty meeting in Hollywood
The sequel to ACTA is TPP, the Trans-Pacific Partnership, yet another secret copyright treaty with many of the same participants.A coalition of civil society groups got wind of an upcoming TPP meeting in a Hollywood hotel and decided to rent out a function space in the same building so they could hold a public information meeting on TPP during the session. According to Techdirt, the US Trade Representative had the hotel cancel the civil society groups’ reservation. The hotel claimed that the reservation was being canceled due to “a confidential group in house” and that “we will not be allowing any other groups in the meeting space that day.”
Except that this turns out to have been a lie. When the civil society group called up and asked to rent a function room for an unrelated event, the hotel was happy to rent to them.
