Well, it’s nullified somewhat by the fact that the description of the chip only refers to searching, not buying and selling, but leave it to the paranoiacs to overract as usual.
That said, I really don’t get Google’s fixation on websearches. I mean, Google’s good, but I’m already starting to dislike it since the search-while-typing thingy came along – can’t say I want that much more innovation in my searching habits to get a chip.
