One other thought: suppose that rather than
providing Google with original content, the
index was locally generated and submitted
in a standard format. Wouldn't that be
something like a locally generated topic map
that is published as the sole interface to
the content? Is that your idea, Alan? As
long as the code is inspectable (no compiled
components), this is palatable.
That would at least make some of my objections
go away by ensuring that whatever Google sees,
I grant permission for that. Again, I would
want to be my own ISP and so will anyone else
as things evolve. This would push the power
back to the author/owners rather than continuing
toward a web where a few bigCo/govs can decide
what anything is worth and what is right.
