It's totally relevant. You implied that Google is wasting their time with doodles rather than these privacy issues. If they're not creating said doodles themselves, then they're not wasting their time.

You literally created your account 12 minutes ago just to bash Google?

You haven't actually read my comment properly, probably a Google Shill.

The longevity of an account has no bearing on validity of ones comments.

Yes, I read your comment properly. And yes, the longevity of your account matters if you're just giving us the usual tin foil hat spew.

As cromwellian also said, Google didn't provide direct access, the NSA cut the fiber. Sure, Google aren't the best company and have had their privacy issues before, but the Government is much worse.

It wasn't the NSA who did it. It was the GCHQ in Britain, who later shared data with the NSA.
