Essentially the human race will either end or progress at unimaginable speeds

In the spirit of transhumanism those two could be one in the same

Haha, I suppose you are correct. I was referring to a more brutal and violent death of humanity through pointless war with eachother.

Gee....big corporate or the military industrial complex....choices choices.

I find it absolutely amazing that google hasn't been subjected to an antitrust suit yet. They are the very definition of a monopoly. The government was all over Microsoft back in the 90's, I just don't see what the difference is. That said, I'd be lying if I said I weren't a bit excited that google is turning into a real life version of the megacorps depicted in cyberpunk novels. We live in interesting times.
