Re: Competition said by morbo:Time Warner and AT&T do not compete on price or service. That is why Google Fiber was born.
It was born because Google wants to experiment and see what kind of information ISPs have access to and datamine it to no end. |

You don't think Google will give out internet data to the NSA?
Google monitors everyone and uses it to build a database about you. They probably know more about you than your closest friend or significant other. I don't think that is much better. |

That's a great question. Google must have some reason. A lot of it is advertising. The more then know, the more they can charge for more accurate advertising. |

Google isn't handing over anything secretly. When law enforcement interferes with their customers, they tell them and it gets documented here:

Does AT&T have a similar list? |

Google is not providing internet to the public yet. Once they do we will know more.
No idea what At&t has. |
|
| Huh? They have tons of public user data, from search history, to email, to social media, mobile data/location data from Android users, etc |
