So you’ll remember they wrote to me saying that my money was back in my account, and that I would be able to “view my balance” this month. Not good enough! How about I will be able to SPEND my balance this month? This is my latest correspondence to them on Nov. 29. O.K., so there was the weekend, but I haven’t heard anything yet.

In view of the fact that I was vindicated as to illegal activity, I would really consider it a gesture of good faith if you would overnight a check to me for the full amount in my account, plus the $8 overdraft fee I lost when you wrongly stopped payment on the other check. I need to get this resolved immediately. I’m still overdrawn at my bank, and I need to pay my water bill. I’m sure you don’t want me to have my water cut off. I’m in a “dead zone” as far as cash flow is concerned, as I am a freelancer, and only get paid at certain times of the month.

Please advise asap.

So far I’ve closed most of my gmail accounts (even ones I forgot I had and had never used), all my Google Pages accounts, and several Blogger accounts. I’ve opened Yahoo mails in almost all of the gmail account names I wish to keep, and am in the process of moving everything on Blogger to another site. When I’m done, except for watching YouTube, I won’t be using anything Google anymore. Don’t watch that much YouTube, so you catch my drift.

I know they have hundreds of my personal emails stored on their computers, and even though I know it will do no good, I’m going to ask them to remove them. Can’t hurt to ask, right? I mean, if you delete an account, all the content should be gone. Of course, that’s in the real world. In GoogleWorld, they can do whatever they want for as long as they want. From what I hear, it will be 2083 before they’re deleted from their computers.

Guess all I can hope for is that something really evil happens to their computers, and all their data is destroyed. That could happen, right? There has to be some hacker out there somewhere capable of wreaking havoc on Google’s database.

O.K., I’m not advocating this, just in case someone might think I am trying to get someone to attack their computers. I’m never in favor of extreme measures. I’m just saying that with the way they are treating publishers and customers, there is bound to be somebody one day who is capable, and who is pissed enough with Google to do it.

The hackers did it to Microsoft, remember? And Microsoft wasn’t screwing people out of money on a daily basis with no reasonable explanation, other than “It’s in our terms of service, and our policies, so we can do it.”

Someone even hacked into the Pentagon computer once. It was a kid, I think, who just sort of stumbled into it. Didn’t cause any damage, from what I remember, but got in a lot of trouble.

So mark my words, one day Google will piss somebody off just enough to set this chain of events into motion, and then all hell will break loose! Half the data in the free world will be in the hands of evil forces…no, wait…Google is the evil force aren’t they?
