Internet Freedom Faces Greatest Threat Ever, Warns Google’s Sergey Brin
http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2012/apr/15/web-freedom-threat-google-brin
Excerpt: “The principles of openness and universal access that underpinned the creation of the internet three decades ago are under greater threat than ever, according to Google co-founder Sergey Brin. “In an interview with the Guardian, Brin warned there were “very powerful forces that have lined up against the open internet on all sides and around the world”. “I am more worried than I have been in the past,” he said. “It’s scary.”"
Yep, They got scared! When they saw ticked off people all over the world respond to OWS! The Music and Entertainment industry doesn't make me want to be a buyer anymore because of what they are doing. As I sit here, I haven't listened to a song I put on in weeks. I listened to one song from an artist liked on Youtube. I'll pay my cable bill and watch Hulu, but I'm not renting anything and I might go to a movie once a year.
Good job! More and more people will do this and they will not have a choice but to listen. Boycotting is powerful!
