Google: Saintly benefactors or imps of Satan?
I have been greatly entertained by this thread in GD
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x2933772
about Google giving free voicemail to homeless people.

What do you folks think? Are the baubles and bling they give away compensation enough for the concentration of so much personal data in the hand of one corporation?

Does it matter if they know that certain keywords represent your preferences?

Have I been an idiot for believing for years there is no such thing as a free lunch?
