It is my firm belief that a person is more than the face they present to society. We are also other parts of our psyche, I do not know what the best terms are for this like the "ego" , "superego" and "id" or the "ego" and our "shadow self" and so on.

I do not see Google as the enemy, data is not inherently bad, it is how you use that data that makes it bad or good.

I understand and respect your right to be distrustful with someone who has so much power, but with power comes the ability to be greatly responsible and transformative as well.

I guess I am just a utilitarian at heart.
