Google executive chairman Eric Schmidt on Thursday predicted the end of the Internet as we know it.

At the end of a panel at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland where his comments were webcast, he was asked for his prediction on the future of the Web. “I will answer very simply that the Internet will disappear,” Schmidt said.

So the Control Freaks hope.

They hate the Internet because it’s exposing their criminal behavior that they could easily hide in the past.

Riiight, just like the dictatorship of the Proletariat.

Schmidt is one evil, nasty SOB. I shudder to think about the plots and schemes that probably go through that guy’s head on a typical day.

[Bubba_Leroy]

Not if we back it up on floppy discs.

The headline in no way resembles the content.

[CharleysPride]

It already has in my home.
(this is an echo-—)

[max americana]

don’t forget that Schmidt was Odumbo’s internet czar

[mountn man]

[bgill]

Algore is saddened.

[vetvetdoug]

If the affirmative action President has his way and the Internet is taxed and regulated by the government, it will disappear.

I have to wonder how extensively they discussed...Obie Hussein’s daunted “net neutrality” plans?

[MeshugeMikey]

with sites like Whitehouse.gov being among the few remaining remnants...

I always go under the rule of thumb that we tend to greatly overestimate what will be done in the short run, and greatly underestimate what will be done in the long run. I don’t think the interesting future he describes will occur for decades, but when it does, it will far exceed our current expectations. The short run will be dominated by less impressive, but in many ways more important, changes to the foundation level of computing.

I think Google is going to try and become the ATT of the Internet.
This is why Obama is pushing the new security laws.

[MeshugeMikey]

Im certain that he’s beside himself!!

[MeshugeMikey]

the emergence of MA GOOGLE...how delightful!

[MeshugeMikey]

He didnt lay out anything resembling a time line ...

I suspect your 100 percent correct.

[MeshugeMikey]

echo ping...
