  You’re right about that, I’m more weirded out by the salaries of the CEOs compared to the other employees. According to google the CEO of American family has a salary of around a million a year so… someone is profiting from it.

  The term non-profit just (to me) almost loses meaning when it makes people filthy rich but you’re right, they are the lesser evil for the time being.

  I am not a nuclear physicist but have also been practicing that concept. Show me an ad that I don’t want to see? I Boycott.

  Hmm… part of me is not convinced that those companies aren’t benefitting in some way… I mean, the employees do have to be paid don’t they? What about the CEO? Is it just a passion project for them?

  I get that web searches make finding knowledge easy but it kind of disturbs me that we shame people for not doing so and basically tell them “just Google it and shut up!”

  Are we supposed to just never communicate with other humans aside from chit chat and personal opinions?

  Never speaking to others about any info that we could glean from Google seems… weird, doesn’t it?

  Who initially began the campaign of “just Google it” anyway? It sounds like an ad campaign for google
