Google should become your friend.

They were until they sold their soul to the stock market.

Ever since then I've been removing bookmarks to Google's services. They
are examples of 'new and improved' = 'isn't as nice and doesn't work as
good' and 'updates are worse than blind dates'.

Now Yahoo is my friend. Yahoo should become your friend.

So you prefer friends who collaborate in internet censorship and
sell out dissidents to opressive governments?

Now that you mention it, that's another reason why
Yahoo is my friend

who is unlike Google that does such things.

Sure aboyt the "unlike" ?
You might want to take a look at <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahoo!> .
An interesting "unlike" from that article is

| Unlike Google or Microsoft, which keep confidential records of its
| users outside mainland China, Yahoo stated that the company will
| not protect the privacy and confidentiality of its Chinese customers
| from the authorities.

What's the difference if you're Chinese?

Wdo does data mining for the US government?
