Lastly in the interview came the subject of digital ecosystems that are not as open as the web itself and I think this portion has led to some misunderstanding of my views. So to clarify, I certainly do not think this issue is on a par with government based censorship. Moreover, I have much admiration for two of the companies we discussed — Apple and Facebook. I have always admired Apple’s products. In fact, I am writing this post on an Imac and using an Apple keyboard I have cherished for the past seven years. Likewise, Facebook has helped to connect hundreds of millions of people, has been a key tool for political expression and has been instrumental to the Arab Spring. Both have made key contributions to the free flow of information around the world” [Sergey Brin, co-founder, Google]
Is there anyone at Google that can handle an interview without stuffing their foot in their mouth? First it was Eric Schmidt, now Sergey Brin, Larry Page is just creepy by nature, and Andy Rubin looks like an A**hole. Too many socially awkward people in one building. Just let Marisa Mayer talk, she looks like the only sane person there, plus she’s much more beautiful than any of these clowns.
