I've been saying it for years. Google will someday be the most powerful entity in the world. They will control every politician. They will track a majority of the Earth's population. They will control information on a global level in multiple ways.

The straw that broke the camel's back for me are these google nanobots. http://rt.com/usa/200251-googlex-nanoparticle-pills-diagnose-diseases/

Let's not forget google earth satellites.

I'm halfway joking with this thread, but I'm halfway not.

They already have enough dirt on every politician and even the potential politicians to set themselves up for decades, if they so chose to.

They also refused to remove photos of the fappening. That's a good thing, right? Or nah?

But their formal corporate motto is "Don't be evil", so I am not worried.

Only if the Rebel Alliance is much larger and more powerful...

I work with Google all the time and even they say some of the things they do are creepy. In fact, they've said in meetings with us "we like to go up to the point of creepy but try not to cross it." lol.

^Good, so I'm not just crazy. Glad they are self-aware enough to notice it too.

It would be kinda poetic if America's "corporations are people", under-regulated, capitalist system created an entity that ended up ruling us all. If that were the case, we would have created the mechanism of our own undoing.

Thank goodness Google has noble intentions.

But in the next 15 years if they get a new CEO with a maniacal laugh, a goatee, and a little man's syndrome-- I'm going straight doomsday prepper mode.

I would save the world by breaking into Google headquarters and bringing down the system from within with just pen, paper, and analog technology!
