11.2 and 11.3 aren't exactly benign either, they just pale in comparison to 1 and 4:

edit: Oh ok, I misunderstood your question. Yes, it was that way when I copied it out the first time...it looks like they've fixed it now. Well, fixed the spelling anyways, which means someone is aware of it...but really, that was the part that bothered you? That you agree that google can distribute your banking information and sell your photos doesn't bother you as much as an incorrect letter?
