It’s not too much of a surprise. Take a look at Google’s TOS. Anything you upload to their platform they can do as they please with it. There is not even an exception made for email.
Right. And this is beyond fucked. I agree that we shouldn’t be surprised. You have to have some kind of advanced law degree and unlimited wealth with no need to ever do anything else but read TOS if you were to ever have control over your own data.
We shouldn’t be allowed to sign away our rights to things like that—or, I should say, we should have the option not to and still be able to use the internet. We have entered into a kind of world where you have to be an engineer to build your own protected version of the internet, or you have to be a lawyer with nothing to do to use the regular one. Or you’re getting screwed.
The problem is, these rights we can click away in less than two seconds are forfeited for eternity. And with the insane leaps on technology and the complete lack of boundaries for corporations in the US, this can and probably will get ugly and way out of hand before we can even gather what’s happening. In my opinion, it already is out of hand. We just haven’t seen the worst of what they can do with this tech.
Or you can just use the internet like billions of people do, and profit from it like those billions of people do.
The Internet is not Google’s platform. The www will be here long after Google is gone, which I hope is very soon.
Lmao good luck with that hope bud.
Lmao or not, Google is still not the Internet. And I hope more people understand this objective truth.
