Default To Google:

Finding myself contact the customer support of a company which I did not sign
a sevice agreement with, violates cunsumer rights. I have another preferred newsgroup reader
which I pay for as part of my internet service provider package. Google intrudes on my
consumer rights and represents illegal and even anticompetitive business aptitudes.

Google Groups emposes illegal services on people who did not sign an agreement
with them. Google needs to remove all dependencies of newsgroup users from Google's
customer services, both for moral and business competitive consumer rights perspectives.

You posted to a public service on a newserver which had permission to
distribute that post. By comparison, its as if you pinned a flyer on a
lightpole in your town then got mad because a picture of it appeared in
the paper without your permission

Now if it had been a "local newsgroup" only meant for use by a limited
access group, which many are, then you would have a case. Not against
Google but you would against uswest. But you cannot post to a public
newsgroup then get mad about where it ends up. Your post is available,
and readable, by hundreds of thousands of servers all over the world.
Thats what newsgroups are. You just happened to find it thru Google.
Google is a search service. Thats what its for. Even the fact that it
lets people see that you are on a VDSL connection from Qwest isnt a
violation.

Considering what you posted I can understand why you might be mad that it
can be seen by more people than you thought. Sorry about that.

OK, this is code isn't it?

First grab all the misplaced and misspelled words:
contact, cunsumer, aptitudes, emposes

list a-z:
aptitudescontactcunsumeremposes

first and last:
A............s

reverse first two letters of first word after last misplaced/misspelled word
in original text
li

Add language code of original text:
en

insert into first and last:
Aliens

First typo into past tense:
cunsumer = consumed = Ate

First person reference after name of defendant:
My

initials of first two words in second paragraph (Obviously):
GG = Horse

Finalise with statement-complaint type:
Blanket

Thus we have, quite simply:

"Aliens ate my horse blanket"

I'm surprised nobody else got this earlier. Still, it all makes sense now,
eh?

Well, if Google *were* to exclude all of his posts
(hello, x-no-archive: yes), it would certainly do a lot for product
improvement };-)>
