You probably can't sue Google over an employee placing the location over something run down. Google provides the application but can't control what the millions of people around the world are doing. Perhaps you can have it removed.

As for the history of class actions - they started back in England in the seventeenth century with something called a "bill of peace." This allowed an action to be brought when the parties to litigation were large and all had the same gripe. This prevented the same case from basically being tried over and over again with a huge waste of the courts time.

I agree, the internet is pointless and useless and a waste of money.
That's why I'm ditching it and using the money for premium tv channels.

Guys,
Regardless of this topic, but is this site for real ??

A news site in English with English language like this ?
I am Dutch myself but I am willing to bet that the writer is as well.
My advise : get yourself an English course because the spell checker you are using only looks at whether words are misspelled: "Death sick" may be consisting of 2 correctly spelled words, but it is obviously a direct translation of "doodziek", which is how I feel after seeing all these errors in a semi-serious news site.

Regards,

Roul Kierkels, Gothenburg.

I just heard this on Five Live. Those TV execs would die for the viewing figures of 30 years ago. It's amazing that they axed 18m viewer shows like The Goodies years ago. What mismanagement. TV as popular mass market entertainment is ending.
