I am not fond of what Google has done either, namely /Paying/ sites merely to
have the 'honour' to become a provider, rather than be paid for the service.
It means that market share can be /bought/. Imagine the same concept being
applied to O/Ses. This requires budgets which OSS does not have. And it is
the same as bribery (like Microsoft paying off OEM's and Web hosts,
including GoDaddy, in order to tweak server statistics).
