Google tracked his bike ride past a burglarized home. That made him a suspect.

Oh, I know what the narrative looked like. But who funded such a large server farm so quickly? |

I've heard rumors that the CIA fronted the money. But then no one here is an accountant that can look back to follow the money. |

BTW, nice of you to scatter your conspiratorial rubbish into 5 unrelated newsgroups. The surest sign of success is oversubscription and pollution and judging by your contribution, Usenet is certainly successful. Who invested in Google early on? https://www.quora.com/Who-invested-in-Google-early-on The four angel investors during 1998 were Andreas von Bechtolsheim, Kavitark Ram Shriram, David R. Cheriton, and Jeffrey Bezos. As PhD students at Stanford, Larry and Sergey were introduced to Andy Bechtolsheim by Prof. Cheriton (Andy and David had co-founded Granite Systems in 1995 and had sold it a year and a half later to Cisco for $220 million). Andy (who also co-founded Sun Microsystems) invested $100,000 in August 1998 to Google Inc. before the company was incorporated. Larry and Sergey were introduced to Ram Shriram by Prof. Jeffrey Ullman at Stanford. Shriram was an early Netscape executive and angel investor; he invested $250,000 on the day Google was incorporated, Sept 7, 1998. Cheriton was the third angel investor, contributing $200,000. Shriram had sold his online shopping company, Junglee, to Amazon in August 1998 to Amazon, where he worked with Bezos. Shriram referred Bezos to Larry and Sergey, and Bezos ultimately providing the fourth angel investment of $250,000 in November 1998. -- Jeff Liebermann 150 Felker St #D http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Santa Cruz CA 95060 http://802.11junk.com Skype: JeffLiebermann AE6KS 831-336-2558 |

Just after the "thin client" craze that never happened. Yes, there were several. In Spain there was one called "Ole" (which is the word used to cheer on the bull fight ring). Very local word. For a time it was successful. It was bought and joined or renamed with "Terra". It bought or joined with Lycos. They had modem banks as internet provider and mail accounts under the name Teleline. Investors invested tons of money, even my father via bank "fund". We lost all that money. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terra_(company) Google simply did the right choices. -- Cheers, Carlos E.R. |

Hi Carlos, You have to be intelligent and realize what Mayayana actually said: "On the other hand, the man is using an Android phone and leaving it turned on, so he already doesn't care about privacy.

I am writing on the Android group, I don't know where he wrote, but the Windows group is a certain possibility as he writes there. He also writes on the Android group. /I/ have no reason to think he was proposing to use iphones. Me, I simply consider his phrase is correct: an android phone is not the correct choice if one values privacy. And I'm absolutely not saying anything about any alternatives - I'd probably go for the one Ms Merkel uses, if I could afford it. It's clear Mayayana fell for the MARKETING bull****... o People who think iOS is more private fall for MARKETING bull****, Carlos. Bull****, Carlos. o I'm allergic to bull**** - particularly parroted MARKETING bull****. You are paranoid. :-P -- Cheers, Carlos E.R. |

I've been filtering Arlen. He makes so many posts and insists on being the discussion leader in them. I started to find it a distraction. (Though he doesn't make it easy.

I'm becoming famous among acquaintances as "the guy who doesn't text". But I think of those people as having fallen for BULL**** MARKETING!!! Of course, I can't tell them that because they no longer speak or email, and I have no capacity to text them. I have been in the Android group off and on. The woman I live with has an Android. She doesn't really know how to use it and I don't want to know. Even with her limited usage I see the beginnings of anti-social addiction, such as standing in the middle of the kitchen, texting. Once the phone gets established as a constant companion, one's actual environs, one's senses, and other people, all become merely interruptions... But if there's a problem with the Android then it falls to me to figure it out. So I sometimes keep an eye on that group. |

Hi Jeff, Most of the posts in this thread are from people who, as you've noted, seem to own a conspiracy theory; but I'm shocked that _technical_ people like Carlos & Mayayana also spouted sheer utter bull**** about Android users not caring about privacy (given iOS is not any better on privacy nor security). Those are just well-cited well-proven well-known facts. The huge problem I have with people like Carlos & Mayana are that... o Adults are supposed to form their belief system _based_ on facts (IMHO). Yet, these (& many) here proved their entire belief system imaginary. o They can't name even a _single_ fact which underlies their belief system! For other adults on this newsgroup, we covered the _facts_ in detail he o Interesting story about geofence warrants increasingly being used on innocent people https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/comp.mobile.android/bqITN_pClYA Which _only_ went to the Android newsgroup: o http://comp.mobile.android These factual on-topic posts were _not_ to these newsgroups of this thread: o http://alt.privacy.anon-server.narkive.com o http://alt.comp.os.windows-10.narkive.com o http://comp.os.linux.advocacy.narkive.com o http://rec.bicycles.tech.narkive.com -- Usenet is so much more valuable, and pleasant, when people act like adults. |
