I guess you could translate the whole thing to Google is going to make bucketloads more money than they already have - as if they actually need it.
Seems like there's absolutely no-boundaries for some in this life.
I dunno', all I really want is a lottery-win ! ;)

I smell paranoia too!
But that's what happens if you sit around all day behind your computer, you lose your grip on reality and conspiracies are everywhere.

Some stuff is a little far fetched. He starts about Google acquiring fiber lines, at another point he's talking about data centers and then suddenly there's BitTorrent... :huh:

lol, i have stopped reading this text at:
"only 5% of ISP's subscribes use BitTorrent and they do the 50 % bandwith"

lol,
allmy frinds r dlling stuff from bittorrent, and those leet ones r in fxp teams, and these really leet ones just have axx'es,

so basically they download a lot, wether they use bittorrent or not, like up to 10 TB amonths or even more ( yes those crazy sceners)

so, why ISPs r vs them, when they actually pay for the connection...
so if i buy a car i'm not supposed to drive it at max speed where it's allowed.

dudesons, really who cares about this.

and why internet2 is not mentioned there in that article.
