Google didn't innovate in the last 10 years and it's very alive and vital. Maybe doing good one thing is enough. Like Google doing ads.

It is impossible to contain now and China's dictatorship doesn't care.

I am saying people are mortal and there will be as many people dying as being born. You can lower number of deaths only by lowering number of births.
