Promp #2

I’m surprised that there is so much debate going about Google right now. I guess people are worried of it becoming a monopoly. In reality, there are many more so called “monopolies” that should make us worried (Comcast, AT&T, etc.) At least, like many of you noted, Google is for free. Not only it is free, but we also have a choice, till now at least. If Google will be a more “mandatory” necessity that we will have to pay for, then watch out for riotsJ. What raises my doubt is the idea of enticement that eventually might lead you to a trap as soon as it becomes a habit. In my view, we are dependant on Google or at least the convenience of getting information fast. I grew up without much influence of the internet, but the staggering amount of teens using the internet proves the dependability. Just think if you had to get from point A to B (alone) in an unknown environment without the internet or phone (or GPS J). Does that seem like a challenge?
