Who is "we" and what have "we" given away? If we refers to software developers, then you have to realize all software developers and software companies aren't created equal. Just as all doctors and hospitals aren&#x

My mom makes the same argument about housewives. Weirdly enough Dwight Howard, Howard Stern and Larry Ellison also think they deserve better. Survival of the fittest and all that...for the rest there are unions.

They are asking Google for open access to content Google doesn't own just as Google is telling Facebook the same thing.

As to the innovation centers of the tech industry, I'd like to see some more decentralization of the hubs. As it evolved, the auto industry benefited greatly from stuff that came out of Europe and Asia. Same cant be said of tech.

Great point. Amazon should do the same thing. Since they host all these sites on their cloud. The only browser that should be allowed to access it should be Amazon's.

So if you are saying in future, Anthony Weiners will get elected, then again I have to disagree with you. Thanks to human nature, I see the exact opposite happening with our leaders. And to your main point, the tech is inevitable cause its

Rent-seeking in silicon valley isn't spoken about enough. Rent seeking has and will always be around, but is it increasing? When we are talking about rankings and matching algo's in the hands of monopolies be it Google, Facebook,

"cultural acceptance of deviancy" Really? So at the height of the next privacy/NSA/Snowden debates, I guess, I should expect society to be vigorously defending the privacy rights of the next Anthony Wiener. Yup I am sure

Which is one of the main reasons Google has no serious competition in search except possibly in China. It is also why the rate of innovation in search isn't moving as fast as it can be moving. If Google opened up (unlimited) web API ac

This is the Neil Degrasse Tyson argument. Though I like it, I kind of really prefer the Bill Gates argument on healthcare and education, and think its the more important one, that everyone can come together on...not just the nerds. And I am

Nihilism has given you a distraction you mean :P It also perfectly excuses the lazy. And I dont care what stories lazy people tell them selves, until it starts effecting the taxes I pay.

Hey wait a second...I am quite intrigued by that "always on" speech core and that NLP core. Google has some great speech recognition tech(possibly the best). This is one area where they can really leave the rest of the pack behind
