of course, the creepy thing about this is that all your data is centralized on google's servers, for surveillance and algorithmic analysis to create "personalized advertisements". it's total spyware. that is why google is making these things. apple seems to be moving to a similar data collection model, with it's new portless devices. the goal here is to push personal storage to obsolescence, and make cloud storage the default.

it's a win-win for the intelligence-industrial complex. who needs warrants in a driveless future, where everything is stored in the cloud with not-so-secret backdoors? and, imagine the possibilities of forced ad consumption when google controls your actual internet access.

"error. you have not watched the ad. please watch the ad and then continue."

actually, we need an orwellian term for ad.

"informational video". yeah...

"error. you have not watched the informational video. please watch the informational video and then continue."
