No one has abused you. Some of your rant is fact. Some is your opinion.

Asking "for what country" was more a comment on your support and promotion of India and your disdain for American companies and the US Title Industry than an implication you do not support the US.  That's my opinion and you may not agree but it is still just an opinion.

Your statement that foreign companies are undercutting American companies and that you are helping them can be verified.

It is your opinion the US Title Industry overcharges for title search fees and most likely the opinion of the foreign companies you assist. I don't think my US clients would agree with you.

Can you back up your statement that millions of companies are outsourcing, or is this just your opinion? In my opinion the number might be in the tens or even hundreds of thousands for all companies but not millions. If you limit this to the title industry the number probably drops to less than a hundred.

It seems strange to me that someone who has been doing title searches for 26 years would just now have discovered Source of Title. Didn't you say you were only recently introduced to Source of Title?

I didn't ask if you had ever had a claim against your E&O. Even the best abstractors can make errors at times. I asked what you were doing to avoid being sued when you said the websites had disclaimers to avoid being sued. In other words do you provide your clients or E&O provider with the same disclaimer? Would you tell a judge that you accepted the risk because you thought the US Title Industry charged too much and you wanted to provide a cheaper service to foreign agents who are outside US jurisdiction.

You are correct in that no courthouse is going to accept responsibility for searches done on their websites. In many cases the websites don't belong to the county but to private companies under contract with the county. This isn't true for searches done at the courthouse where state law may prevent record custodians from disclaiming responsibility. That's why some website disclaimers warn researchers the records displayed online are not official and should not be used for professional research. It's also why websites do not have the authority to certify records.

I'm not concerned about Google or Yahoo's disclaimers. I don't rely on either for title work. I did use them to search for an abstractor named Alvey from Kentucky but all I found was your posts here on SOT and an apprentice paralegal named Joseph Alvey in Louisville Kentucky on LinkedIn.
