10 to the 100th power

A company equal to 10 to the 100th power

 

or maybe more. So, what do you people have in mind? What am I really going to talk about? Even I’m not sure. But forgive me, if I might hurt a couple or two, but I really feel somewhat moved by my own thoughts lately.

What exactly can a company, a leader, a brand with a power of almost 10100 units {if power (not in watts, or any other derivatives) only had one} do to/with/in a world like ours? After all, it’s all lead by humans, punch me in the face if I say anything wrong. But before a large destruction, or an attempt, there is always manipulation, building of an empire, linking, and of course, happiness. To be more precise, dependence. Our government has a control over us only because we are dependent upon it. Now, the government can generate a warfare, but what good could possibly come from it? Earlier, we had kings, and rulers. One body, million dependencies. Even though we might not see it that way, but was that secure? Or, was that *fair* in a way? I, on my part, don’t think so. Not that today’s system(s) are well-behaved, but it is still better than a single view deciding for a million of us. I mean, seeing things from different views, approaching them with different perspectives, isn’t that what an educated person does? 

Anyway, we can come to that later, but the very reason I am writing this post is because one evening (no, I’m not getting paid for writing this, just curious) I had this thought while surfing the web that everywhere I look, everywhere I see. From my TV till my Cell phone and I don’t know what more. I mean, the best from the best known tech projects are actually in the hands of a very beautiful trust. Yes, even this site you are reading this post on, was/is developed by that very interesting name. Now, in this world, I don’t think the people are actually surrounded by anything as badly as they are by Google products. I don’t mean any harm, and trust me, this name is revolution, actually! I am an intermediate (oh who am I kidding, I have a life because of Google) dependent on Google. But this thought, of a destruction gave me a little blow. And I think if this, had not occurred to Google yet, this could be a blow on the next April fool’s day maybe?  

Since we are so badly surrounded by this brand’s products and projects, Google can actually ruin everything. If only it were in wrong hands. I mean, not to worry or something but doesn’t it click when you suddenly realise that all the accounts you have, almost everything, is registered under this very name. They know what you searched in the past week, month, since the very first time. Your browser, is capable of accessing almost everything. Your phone, is totally in the hands of Google. Most of your data might be online, on your drive. Yes, this company respects privacy, but just for a moment. What if by some means, the company fell in the hands of a negative (from our view) brain? This company can actually rule us all.

Most of the advanced projects are developed by google. I actually feel safe when I read that name but if something as such happened, it’s going to be terrible. But what if Google is just a way to keep an eye on every other person? You know what I mean, a face? That could be a superb idea. What if this was some secrecy that the governments wanted to keep only to them? Like, they say we have to keep an eye on the people, but we can’t do it on-stage. We need a performer. And bam! 

Now, the reason to not be afraid of this and to be afraid of it, are exactly the same. You don’t need to be afraid of this because you know that no matter what you do, somebody is always watching you. But also, the fact that someone constantly knows about every step you make could scare some hell out of you too. 

Even if you know that you are not doing anything wrong, someone always watching you, does pinch deep. If not a lot, a little is enough to think about it. 

Having everything settled at one place is pretty nice and bug-free. But is it safe to rely on one?
