Quote:Google is taking its position of inclusion for sexual minorities outside the company itself; the company has announced an international campaign to promote legal marriage equality for same-sex couples... the campaign will at first "focus on countries like Singapore, where certain homosexual activities are illegal, and Poland, which has no legal recognition of same-sex couples."
It's not having what you want - It's wanting what you've got.

This is an outrage. I am so disappointed in Google. My milk, oreos, and "I'm Feeling Lucky" night is totally ruined. Oh, and because this site is using Google Ads, I'm going to stop coming here as well as 73.14159% of the internet that contains Google Advertising.

Are people seriously boycotting Google over this Rolleyes

Sadly, I wouldn't be surprised. Either way, go Google!

If people who do not support this cause boycott all sites that have something to do with Google, that's another positive side to this.

Ok I know google wants to take over the world but with the stuff they do I wonder if it'll be bad (as in what they do behind the scenes).

Go google, I hope you succeed.

I don't care what changes you bring, Singapore is in dire need of a lot of it.

I was extremely happy until I read that it was "Love" that they wanted to legalize.

Now I am just normally happy. Rolleyes
