Google buys Doubleclick for $3bn

#4  For a company whose motto is "don't be evil" (Google), I find it odd they would buy the most evil internet company in existance!

At least they didn't buy the RIAA.

#3  "Don't be evil," my ass!

Google willingly cooperates with the Chinese secret police to track down online dissidents. Compared to that, this is venal sin.

If there was any justice in the world, Google bought 'em just to destroy 'em. But I doubt that's their plan....

For those who don't know, Doubleclick is the web advertising network responsible for 90% of the annoying pop-up and floating ads you have to endure when browsing the net.

#1  I thought it might be Peek Oilz or maybe Boid Flue or maybe even the 12th (or soaked) Immam, but nope, this is it. The End Times are at hand.
