@DuckieTigger. You are indeed a customer of Google, as am I and probably everyone else on this forum, at least in my view. pwalker8 obliquely raises some issues which could be worth discussing in their own thread, namely the consequences of Google's model of accepting payment in the form of information, and how they differ from the usual transaction where money changes hands. For what it is worth, however, I don't see that Google treats its search customers differently in any way which is material to this discussion, though I can think of some arguments to the contrary. As pwalker8 makes the distinction it would seem he does think there are differences in treatment which are material. I am simply curious what he believes these differences may be.
