title as it should be: 'google did not die a hero, it instead lived long enough to become the villain.'
such old news though
google became the villain the moment it decided to become publicly traded and chose to be the internet's ad pimp rather than a search engine

Winamp wasn't a Google project.
Winamp was Nullsoft and AOL bought it to ruin it.
It really whips the llama's ass.
