Your godfather is very astute. Today it is known as corporatocracy.However, my god-father replied that, in short, in the past, oppressors would wage wars to get richer and expand their influence, which caused poverty, sadness and death. Today, the oppressor expands his influence via consumerism and moreover, isn't in his interest for the consumer base to die or be poor. He needs the consumers just wealthy enough to buy his goods, so in a sense, we are better off.
This put me in thoughts.
It should. I've never given a thought to it, in a logical respect.Today, the oppressor expands his influence via consumerism and moreover, isn't in his interest for the consumer base to die or be poor. He needs the consumers just wealthy enough to buy his goods, so in a sense, we are better off.
This put me in thoughts.
it is a "because we can" attitude.The US is presently in the agony of the rich impoverishing the poor so deeply that the system is starting to fail. The people that actually produce wealth have so little capital to work with that the whole country is on the edge of stalling. There is a vacant house on every block, even in the most stable of neighborhoods.
Is that an infringement of your copyright? Or have you consented to Terms and Conditions, or a Privacy Policy, which allow that?I found it very creepy that Google "backed up" all the hires photos from my SD card while using a 7" Android tablet- not only slowing down the tablet itself but also the wireless internet was slow as creep + it consumed some 400 megabytes without asking.
normally on a tablet i am not even supposed to maintain a file system, just use the built in photos facility. but android is just a blend of Linux, not something completely new created by google.Is that an infringement of your copyright?

I think Alec_T was referring to Google copying YOUR copyrighted photos to their cloud without permission.normally on a tablet i am not even supposed to maintain a file system, just use the built in photos facility. but android is just a blend of Linux, not something completely new created by google.
What do you expect from Google? Backing up some photos in random order is really what you'd expect from them, of course without permission.I think Alec_T was referring to Google copying YOUR copyrighted photos to their cloud without permission.
Pre-CICE-ly the reason I will never enlist in either boob-tube, farcebook, twitter or any such claptrap...It's the new world order.
Google will store your search history anytime you are logged into youtube.
