Jiminy christmas. I made a comment on hackernews and you're trying to parse it like we're in a court of law.
The fact is that Google is different than a mom and pop shop with a video camera. It's ludicrous to suggest otherwise.
- tomcam 10y agoForgive me for quoting you. You started with "Legally Google is different" so I assumed you wanted to talk law or legislation. Also, I don't recall comparing Google to smaller organizations. I may be oversensitive, but when I hear terms like "They are a public resource" I assume you mean that they should therefore be regulated by the government and paid for with tax money.
- Steeeve 10y agoForgive me... I made a flippant comment following this thread of conversation: > Is this really that different from police asking for security camera footage from a convenience store after a robbery? > I think legally, Google is no different than any other business. And when I came back to the thread there was a series of comments parsing my words. I overreacted to the group and you were the target of that over-reaction.
- tomcam 10y agoNo prob! This is important stuff.
