lol the old Google and it's mission statement i wonder if it ever followed that vs. it was all PR that many fell under it's spell. I surely did then I was invited to demo my invention/tech to Google ATAP and whoa it was a huge spit in my face type experience and similar to this MIT student's experience https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18566929 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18566929. Hers was worse as they blatantly patented her work after her interview without her knowledge and consent. Yet they got caught.
I am avid DDG user and advocate ever since realizing wow Google stomps on all the dreamers it inspired.
- denton-scratch 5y agoGoodness gracious, "I demo'd my work to $BIGCO and they stole it". Imagine my surprise. This has been going on since the start of the PC era. I don't condone it in any way, but trusting $BIGCO is like trusting the mafia; don't do it, or have a private army (lawyers, gunmen, doesn't matter).
- paul7986 5y agolol i went out there with a provisional patent filed which is a waste of money you later learn cause you need a similar warchest to your opponent. My point is Google's motto/PR was "Don't Be Evil," and that was just a ruse and her experience helps prove that as well prompts users to be disenchanted by them who also were sold and bought that same crap. Further I am more then happy to tell my story and more importantly her story with evidence to warn those who have Google's stars in their eyes to demand millions before taking a meeting!
