Right now, today, there are still a variety of alternatives available to most google services. What about tomorrow though?
Once the alternatives to all google freebies have been eliminated, there will be no more freedom of anything online, everything you do will be subject to some type of strict monitoring, anything that is digitally controlled over a network will be subject to being cut off if you do not toe the line of the corporate masters. It is the greatest happening ever created by man and all except the corporate masters will be subject to this slavery.
How can we help promote this greatest of recent happenings?
1. Keep your head in the sand like an ostrich.
2. Say "google bad" while promoting google services when there is an alternative service.
3. Pretend your google activity has no effect on the rest of the universe because "I have nothing to hide"
Now its time to go watch a youtube video on the android phone while downloading the latest github developed software program from someones google drive while while using google maps to find the shortest route to your grave.
