Default Google sucks

I doubt many people know how dictatorial this company is.

Today, without any prior notice, and for no reason at all, they disabled my account. This includes e-mail, stock info, calendar, and blog.

You probably won't care until it happens to you. But watch out for this company. They'll f*ck you over without thinking twice about it.

They give no explanation. You can call them (all automated responses) but can't leave a message, and they won't respond to e-mail messages unless they decide to. That kind of deal. They ignored all my e-mails, until I mentioned the magic words: "class action lawsuit". I guess that wasn't worth the risk to them, because after that my account was restored.

I'm taking my stuff out. This is the last company, on the face of the earth, that I will place my trust in. They're basically the portal to the internet, which is beyond belief, when you think about it. F*ck them.
