Google giggles some new rules. Nothing to see Here

Technology, History, Environment, Humor

Here’s something I just got from Google; something that Cass Sunstein has determined is necessary to inform before pouncing and redacting our lifeforce, in order to protect ‘society’?  Remember the movie ‘Anti-Trust’ where a meglamaniacal software company CEO, Tim Robbins plans to launch a SkyNet called ‘Synapse’, which would control all news. Ryan Phillippe is the good guy and thwarts the effort.

Of course, I’m waiting for the move of Bill Gates, who stole DOS (Disk Operating System) from a professor, who sued him and won $50k. (this is now reported as BG bought the system for $50k.)   The professor died within a few years. The he stole MacOS from Apple; Apple sued and lost; Apple picked from the garbage MacOS from Xerox and hired many of the engineers who Xerox sidelined after the CEO of Xerox called GUI a ‘toy’. 

Well I haven’t checked all this out, but would appreciate it if anyone finds something scary to share back.
