I’m happy to see this being noticed more and more. Google wants to destroy the open web, so it’s a lot at stake.

Google basically says “Trust us”. What a joke.

      Don’t mistake me for excusing their behavior. It’s the contrary. But I do think a grounded conversation starts with understanding what people’s motivations are.

          I actually posted an article about their opening of a data center being detrimental to another countries water supply. Link should be in my profiles recent posts, worth a read.

          I think there is a fair lot of people who think it’s absurd to pay for what they consume. And if you asked them what the alternative is to them paying they’d say nothing, it should be free.

          Each service they run is binned and probably billed and generates revenue separate ways, but enough of that Im not trying to argue for pro google. The DRM they’re trying to push is bullshit.
