How Google Will Take Over Your Mind

Thursday, December 1st, 2005

Posted by: Fester

I’ve been trying to say it here all along, maybe with too much emotion and not enough intelligence (I had to search Google to know how to spell ‘intelligence’), but I think the picture I’ve been trying to paint here is without a doubt best expressed by eurotrash at a recent post over at ThreadWatch (sad to se you go Nick!)…

In fact, the post by eurotrash is so good, I’m going to be a complete ass and post the whole thing here - I don’t want it to loose it’s effect. Here’s a link to the entire thread entitled Big Google Becomes Big Target.

Here is the most incisive, succinct post EVER on what the negative potentialities of GOOGLE are…

‘My tuppence’
As I said to Matt in Vegas, what happens 20 years down the line if the United States gets a president who makes George Bush look like an utter left wing loonie and his crew get into power. The Dept of Homeland Security officer comes in with a piece of legal paper in his hand and says, “We’re taking all that data for something we are working on and this subpoena says we can!”
It worries me that although the nice left wing engineers, Mr. Brin, Mr. Page and of course the good Mr. Cutts will do everything they can to stop the officers getting the data but they won’t be able to do much.
I went through a dodgy time in a past life when an extremely dodgy, fat, stinking, lying, theiving bastard of a newspaper owner spent all his employees pension money and when the fucker disappeared off the edge of a yacht in the Atlantic so did the pensions of not only the current serving employees but also the retired employees who needed this money to live.
I was one of the lucky 12 people who were based in Amsterdam and there was a Dutch Law which said that our pension money couldn’t be put in with all the other pension money in the UK, US and Australia so my money was saved.
I think the moral of that story is that it is really up to governments to start speaking up and making better laws to start saving their citizens data and I think that it is down to governments to start asking questions about this now.
Matt, you asked what are Google doing that the others aren’t doing. First is the 2038 cookie. Why and what reason - why should you keep data on what my mother does on Google after she dies - if she doesn’t come back in a year, she probably won’t be coming?

FREE ANALYTICS FROM GOOGLE? - WITH A PRICE!

Wednesday, November 16th, 2005

Posted by: Fester

A colleague recently sent me link to the new FREE WEB SITE ANALYTICS TOOL from GOOGLE - and asked me what I thought…

Of course, my jaw nearly hit me in the nads - simply because the implications of what is going on with these guys is just unreal. All these tools they’re giving us ALL come with a price - your freedom.

Which is Real, and Which is the Joke?

Thursday, October 27th, 2005

Posted by: Fester

Well…

F’ me BLUE.

It’s here. It’s like the aliens have actually landed and are taking over the world…

The first image was just a joke 3 weeks ago - but the second image is a new ‘tool’ that Godgle has for us that will pretty much profile any user down to the # of hairs in their…

Well, just look at this, and see that Big-G will have access to pretty much ANYTHING you do….

What kind of world are we creating here…?

THE JOKE
(from NYTimes.com | Original Image):

The Joke

THE REALITY
(from ThreadWatch.org - with Original Image - the damn site was down so we borrwed your pic, Nick, will repalce when we can get our own screenshot - when it’s live again)
Visit Google Base here (may be down)

The Reality - Really.

Again it’s like the BORG are taking us over. Other people smarter than me think so too - so I must not be CRAZZY!!!

When did a pen and friggin notepad become so difficult to use…?

the answer is - they’re not, it’s just that we’re being manipulated into believing that we NEED this stuff…

“OH, HOW DID I EVER LIVE WITHOUT IT!!?”….

F’ IT!! - OR ELSE - YOUR F’d!!

Chester’s point below is right on the mark….

Google’s 300 Year Plan: Prepping Us For Assimilation?

Friday, October 14th, 2005

Posted by: Fester

Not many of us come up with a long-term plan (a serious one), and only a few of us come up with 1, 2, 5, 10, or 25 year plans… but even fewer of us - actually NONE of us - comes up with a 300 YEAR PLAN (unless you’re planning to take over the world), until now (probably because they’re planning to take over the world).

This is what we have to look forward to - thanks to Godgle: The Google home page of the future. (I didn’t do it - there’s other people out there who are thinking what I’m thinking you know…)

Impending Overcontrol...
By RANDY SIEGEL
Randy Siegel is the president and publisher of Parade Publications. See the original HERE.

Seems Godgle has decided that THEY are the ones who will index THE ENTIRE CONTENTS OF ALL THE WORLD’S INFORMATION. That’s about 5 million terabytes, but “only about 170 terabytes have been indexed” says Eric Schmidt - head puppet at Google.

Well then, get to work, Eric!!!!!

I just have one question: “Will I have to wait in line before you suck all the contents of my brain out of my head, or can I make an appointment to get it over with now?”

Do you suppose that they’ll soon be introducing a new monitor that actually HAS A CAMERA BUILT INTO THE SCREEN, so that Google can actually see us while we work, play, eat, fornicate, etc.. ONLY for the purpose of being able to better provide us with any information we may need INSTANTLY as we need it (you believe that, right?). Basically, with this new system, our minds will always be ‘indexed’, and what we ask for will be delivered - on thought. SWEET!

I think?

See you inside the collective! (Do you think there’ll be any hot chicks in there?? - Like Seven of Nine?)
Hot Chicks in the Collective?
(I’d love to Google HER!)

In closing: This, the funniest, most serious post ever is still my favorite.

Love Forever,

Google To Destroy All Non-Indexable Copyrighted Materials

Monday, September 26th, 2005

Posted by: Fester

Well, it appears ‘ol Fester aint the only one with a penchant for poking fun at Godgle. Seems The Onion has posted an amusing little segment on one of Google’s upcoming .labs. projects in their systematic attempt to brainwash and control us all: “Google To Destroy All Non-Indexable Copyrighted Materials”.

May Larry and Sergey use my facial epedermis for the soles of their shoes if this doesn’t happen (in one form or another).

I’m getting more and more entrenched in the thought that Godgle really is Big-Brother. I mean, they even won the most recent ‘Big-Brother Award“!!!!

Are the Google Gods Infalible?

Tuesday, September 20th, 2005

Posted by: Fester

Well, my friends and enemies…

I know what we do here is all in fun, but some of the satire is also meant to make you THINK about the darker possibilities…

This is about the upcoming ‘Partner Forum’ that Google will be holding soon - where they’ve asked 400 press and blog people to come and discuss things, but not to press and blog about it afterward. Now that we all know this is happening, is it possible that this will be possible???? Huh?

Google - The NEW God - Part 2

Wednesday, August 17th, 2005

Posted by: FESTER

[ link to Part 1 ]

Dammit! They did it again.

In an attempt NOT to be evil, Godgle has gone out and tried to be GOD again (or Big-Brother at least!). Yes, it seems they are totally disregarding over 100 years of copyright law - and making their own new law that suites their needs.

Here’s an excerpt from Brad Hill:

Google Toolbar for Firefox - More Evil?

Monday, July 11th, 2005

Posted by: Fester

It was announced last week that Google was releasing thier toolbar for Firefox.

While there is much praise over the many features the new toolbar offers, I can’t help but feel sorry for those people who have been surfing using Firefox - relatively unwatched by Big G - and now that they’re installing the toolbar, they’re under Big Bother’s all-seeing eye.

Google’s Personalized Home Page - Better Late Than Never - or is it?

Thursday, July 7th, 2005

Well, as you can see from the excerpts from this eweek.com article below, the powers that be at Google insist that they’re doing something “new” with thier recent offering of a personalized Google home page. This type of rhetoric from the power pawns makes me cringe with disgust, like when you catch a girlfriend who’s cheated - who lies to you to ’save you the pain’. I HATE when that happens.

Adding arms to the Google vs. MSN vs. Yahoo battle, it seems that Google’s ‘new’ thing is just a few years late. What they’ve come up with in thier ‘released earlier than anticipated’ version is just lame. In fact, it made me go get a MyYahoo home page - really (I kinda like this RSS aggregator thing!). Unless Google can come up with a way to add some really CRAZY new features, there’ll be nothing new my friends - except for the order of the words in which they feed you the marketing crap that the machine that is Google was created to mine your personal websurfing habits - and thus personality - so they can pass the information onto the government to try to control your brain so they can oppress you into doing what they want and believing what they want you to believe. - but that’s just my opinion.

Here’s the excerpts:

A personalised Google Homepage??

Tuesday, June 28th, 2005

That’s right - you heard it here folks (maybe not first)… Google has a plethora of new tools for you to use (and for them to track you with), including a personalised ‘portal’ type home page, strikingly simlar to MSN and Yahoo personal home pages…
