Google's kowtowing to fascist madman Trump -- a man literally trying to steal the next election by preventing millions of people from voting -- is rapidly pushing the firm and by extension Alphabet into the unenviable historical position of IBM's servicing of the Third Reich.

The ultimate goal of government for the Internet -- total control

Keep in mind that the ultimate goal, always unspoken, is the ability to identify and track every user of the Internet for every activity they take on the Net at any site, much as in China. The key to starting down this road is age verification, which ultimately forces every user to be identified irrespective of their age. The full project of "Chinafication" of the Internet in the U.S. will take time, but Big Tech will happily play along to protect their bottom lines.

Cops really don't like the public interfering with Flock cameras because this interferes with cops stalking their ex-girlfriends.
