evil google is taking over the world.

We started noticing this too early 10/1/09 and starting calling it "Big G, Phone Home". Around the same time, we learned that Google (Big G) was buying up enormous amounts of bandwidth on a global scale. This transmission capacity they were buying we figured was Big G building their own seperate 'Internet'. We dubbed the new capacity as 'GooglePlanet'. We put MAC's PC's, couple of cell phones, into a controlled test environment and in every single case, each electronic device "AT BOOT" phones home to Big G. We then separated all the devices to different locations and the same result - all devices phoned home to Big G. We concluded that our suspicions that Big G Phone home was indeed establishing a new world 'Google Planet' where everything is run by, connected to, and dependent on Google. Since we're FOSS folks, and we recognize that Google runs on Linux, we didn't see this as necessarily bad. We were happy to see that an open source planet is coming into a new dawn. We did, however, sell all our Microsoft stock shortly thereafter even though WindowsXP still has 70% of the world's installed user base. If Big G is making a move to build their own internet, we suspect that soon thereafter, their internet will become THE internet. What if all 'Big G Phone Home Machines' decide they no longer want to talk to Microsoft powered devices? 1e100.net came from out of nowhere to land on the list of the top traffic domains in the country in a few months. Next it could be their OS, or anything else. I would conclude that at the least, Big G is getting to KNOW YOU, getting to know all about you.
