I think the solution is to just remember that any corporation on the Internets Tubes is in business to make money and not help people.

Instead of taking action against the corporations who seem to be operating within the laws, the logical thing is to educate the people?

Has google ever claimed that they were an unbiased search engine?

Governments and societies can only do so much to protect its citizens. The people have to accept some responsibility for their own security.

We really can't protect people from their own gullibility.
