Okay, so this joke obviously struck a nerve. And I agree that Google's
whereabouts should be closely monitored, as their sheer size makes them
a very “dangerous” company.

But focusing on one company would be a mistake, and Google is far from
being the worst offender in the “IT” world. As fate would have it, I
just came across (http://j.mp/9zmxhD) a link to “to an amazing speech by
Eben Moglen that everyone should read.” Amazing, indeed, and thought-
provoking. Excerpts:

“The deal that you get with the traditional service called telephony
now includes a thing you didn't know like spying. It's not a service
to you. But it's a service. And you get it for free with your
service contract for telephony.”

“Cloud means servers have gained freedom. Freedom to move. Freedom to
dance; to combine and to separate, re-aggregate, and do all sorts of
tricks. Servers have gained freedom. Clients have gained
nothing. Welcome to the cloud.”

“The human race has susceptibility to harm but Mr. Zuckerberg has
attained an unenviable record. He has done more harm to the human
race than anybody else his age.”

Pointers to more excerpts, a full transcript, and audio & video
recordings are available there:

But for your convenience, I'll link to a video… in the cloud!

Cheers, -D

Coming Soon!
