    Maybe there's some conditional stuff happening for displaying the doodles, depending on the requested domain and origin of the request.. For me it only showed for google.de.

      Actually, I could see the same doodle using both GOOGLE.COM and GOOGLE.DE. I don't know if addressing GOOGLE.DE causes the request to be re-directed to GOOGLE.COM, but whatever, I saw the same doodle. Dave.

        I did not invite google to put spy scripts and nearly every page on the internet that people view. Google is a monoply that needs to be broken up so others can compete to provide a search engine and not Gazprom thats a russia gas supplier that no one has ever heard off. As always its do as we say and not as we do when in comes to america and its corporations

        Yes you did; it's in the terms of service, which are implicitly agreed to (by you) when you use their product. If you don't like it then use a different product.

          When i visit a web-site and did not click a box to say i agreeded to anything then how is that an agreement for Google to run 5000 lines of script in the page to try to hack details from my machine. The T&C of running scripts on my machine is that my machine might lie/fake the results that are then uploaded. The Google monoply allows them to hold a gun to peoples heads and if everyone was so happy with what google is doing then how come more and more people are trying to block them. Sites (maybe even here) will say in the T&C that no one is allow to block the add-servers but most people I know do.

            If you actually read the T&Cs you will see that by using their product you are agreeing to the terms of use. As I said before, if you don't like it then you don't have to use their product; there are alternatives.

              "If you actually read the T&Cs you will see that by using their product" Well if you want to call googles spyware scripts a "Product" then that is up to you but i should not have to run tons of code to opt out of running these scripts because Google forces everyone to put them on their sites or face being religated to page 50 of any search results. I signed nothing and i don't have ten hours to read T&C for every site i use but I do have EU laws protecting my rights plus human rights and they contridict many T&C and this puts Google in court ever other week. Will not say here but do you know about the new changes Google is trying to introduce in the US ?

                It makes no difference. And the more people shout against it the more likely it is that all this free software that we rely on will change to being chargeable. Then you will have to sign an agreement and be billed for your usage.

                  Google needs us more than we need them and they are charging sites, far too much and even says just how we needed to devlope pages to get a good rating and then changing the rules. SEO is easy, just pay google, JD Do you think that the billion or so people that run add-block type software should be treated as criminals for getting something for free ?

                    No, and I never suggested they should. I was merely talking about terms of use.

                      Richard we are never going to agree on this one but know its nothing personal with Google and Me bacause I have just the same views towards all the other big american software giants. Comes from reading the scripts in web pages and watching my firewall logs far to much :) I will let you have the last say
