Then it is a terrible comparison. Google does not control distribution of video content on the web. There are many platforms that could be used to share a movie on the web. That makes it pretty unlike telegraph operators.

This sounds like an episode of black mirror and seems immoral. If this actually does work and scale the results would be horrific. I don't really want brains with no rights to exist like this.

Sure, they have "highly advanced prototypes" where those prototypes obey the known laws of physics and experience inertia. They have drones that are better than the existing drones. They absolutely don't have drones that are

You mean the price of Coke and Pepsi vs Big Shot cola? I would prefer buying nothing at all vs dunkin donuts. I guess I would pay double for Krispy Kreme because to me we are talking about something I want vs something I never want even for

Do pepsi and coke taste the same? Are all soft drinks interchangable? I don't really care about this, but Krispy Kreme donuts taste much better than Dunkin Donuts.

I don't know why we aren't going full bore on developing a sun shade that we have some control over so regardless of the cause we can just regulate the temperature of the planet. You can say it is risky to engage in terraforming p
