Hahaha wat.

> still they down vote my comment and demand government regulation. They have no clue what they're in for.

Oh, we do have a clue. We have close to two centuries [1] of data to draw from. Corporations and big companies will always go for the worst possible things and are only reigned in when the government steps in. Without fail.

> at least for the most they give anybody a chance to compete in the results ranking.

No, they don't. And they haven't done this for a very long time now.

[1] Well, more. Government regulations are as old as governments, but let's take the last two centuries as something resembling more modern capitalism.

> No, they don't. And they haven't done this for a very long time now.

They do. I've launched several projects in the past years from nothing, with no backlinks, that are ranking high on Google and making good money. Just by adding the pages to their index in the box they provide. That's just the truth, no matter how strongly you feel for your ideology.
