Ted Leung points to Dare Obasanjo - it seems that counter-programming against tools like GreaseMonkey has started:
I find this hilarious. Greasemonkey scripts work by effectively screen scrapping the website and inserting changes into the HTML. Stephen and others who are upset by Google's change are basically saying that Google should never change the HTML or URL structure of the website ever again because it breaks their scripts. Yeah, right. Repeat after me, a web page is not an API or a platform.
I'm getting a Spy vs. Spy (Mad magazine) visual here :)
