No offense, but without advertisement, then how does Google pay the bills? It's one thing to not want to be stalked, it's another thing to use a free product and complain about the company making money from even showing adds on the side of the page....
I'm not shutting down Google. I am disabling ads for me. The two are not identical.
If everyone did as I do, then Google would have problems. But they would have them anyway, because I don't follow ads. On the other hand there would also be one hell of a lot more free software. And everyone would have a shaved head and a beard.
