Omnipotence for all -
Google is a search engine. But it's a good search engine and that is its burden.
Many years ago I read a science fiction story where the protaganist built a machine that could read signals from the future and convert them into pictures. Unfortunately he had failed to realise that the machine could be set to read just a fraction of a second into the future and be turned into a camera that could look through walls, containers and anything solid. The whole world was altered by the eradication of personal privacy.
This article discusses some of the results of Google's "all seeing eye" that they perhaps did not consider when first they started to index the web. Anyone with access to the internet can, in a very short period of time, search a large proportion of all the information contained on the internet including semi-private personal information, information that person may not be aware has been published. Try it yourself.
that's a nice rock!
