Good point. They have a dilemma because they can reduce the quality of their
results, but at the same time may get higher profits for it.
By referring the surfer to the .gov Factbook, they will get no money. Refer
the surfer to a Factbook mirror with AdSense and you give the surfer the
same content and increase your (Google's that is) profit. This is a
potential point for Google criticism and friction in the future. Call it
hypocrisy perhaps.
