Originally you comment was about the integrity of google not the Legality of the web site.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Jump to: navigation, search
Integrity comprises the personal inner sense of "wholeness" deriving from honesty and consistent uprightness of character.
Popular views of Integrity
Many people appear to use the word "integrity" in a vague manner as an alternative to the perceived political incorrectness of using blatantly moralistic terms such as "good" or ethical. In this sense the term often refers to a refusal to engage in lying, blaming or other behaviour generally seeming to evade accountability. Integrity is holding true to one's values. Said another way: being one's word; doing what you said you would do by when you said you would do it. Integrity is knowing what is important to you and living your actions accordingly. It may take the form of a sense of etiquette that runs very deep, as in Christianity or the political virtues.


I myself do not see where Google is using any integrity in taking money from a web site so that it can be the first site people see when doing a search. Google knows as does the owners of the questionable web sites, that people are gullible and generally trust what is written. Thus the reason for paying to have your website seen first. Google does not care what the results or outcome of this is they gust want the $$$. They do not care how many people get ripped off or anything else they only care about the $$$.
Buy the definition of integrity google has none so you need to look for a different word when describing Google. Or any search engine for that matter. Immoral would be a better choice.
They are in business to make money and that is what they do. They do not care who gets hurt or riped off or the integrity of the web sites they host.
As far as LimeWire filtering out unwanted search results from the Gnutella net the word for that is sensor. I for one do not want LimeWire to sensor anything. It is my right to see all that is available. If I want to sensor the results I can by using the filters built into LimeWire.
So you original post was totally backward LimeWire does have integrity Google does not. LimeWire has a free product for anybody to use that wishes. It has a pro version which allows more connections thus depending on your connection can provide better results. It does not sensor content but allows you to if you choose to.
Any way whether you choose to admit it or not your original statement was wrong.
