False dichotomy, and just a plainly dumb and lazy statement.

To sell to advertisers Google has to get people to use its search engine and other products. To do that it has to treat users like customers in that it would rather have them be happy than not happy, at least unless it costs them too much. This is precisely the relationship that other businesses have with their traditional, simple customers.

Perhaps it is lazy, but what is dumb about the OP's statement?? Personally, I would argue that starting a comment with something as inflammatory as you just did is truly dumb.
