http://www.narus.com databases. That's a good thing. When people start being called into court for "safety" hearings based on behavioral computer models, perhaps they will finally tell the Government to piss off.
So tell us something we don't know, if it is not Google then it is Dell or Apple followed by the weak Microsoft trying to control all content. See the fiber they are putting in in Kansas kind of has me scared because they will develop something that is direct competitor to the current, open and basically free internet. We will still have our old fashion internet but now we will have Google's internet which will be very fast and really provide for significantly different content that they will control the rules to. Could you imagine no HTML 5 just some Google script that is only allowed to work on their system and nothing else. Or some crazy board that checks your code before access to their web which will have a fee on top of the access fee. They are not going to lay down all this fiber along with the money and not charge.
For once I am really glad that the feds are working on something that down the road we will be able to use and not allow Google a Monopoly the next type of internet. Granted it will take some time before we get access and Google's solution will be better but I am sure it will be free just like the first version.

Since AT&T rolled over like a trained dog during the 9/11 search what makes you think Google would not do the same and basically build the next NSA system? Look up Google’s government efforts to date, they are trying to be the next Microsoft and do even more then what Microsoft dreamed of. Google is trying to make the US IT world over in their vision and they keep giving away the stuff they don’t care about to get the really big contracts to control everything. Google is basically using the best practices of Apple and Microsoft against all the IT world.
Basically I am saying Google is the devil,
. Happy holidays!
