So Google, and Chrome, think ideas are “malware.” And are spreading the word that ideas are malware. Very interesting, very Big Brother.

There is definitely, or at least was in the late 80s early 90s, an idea going around in some university circles known as the "idea virus." This idea is simple. It is almost identical to "going viral" today. It just means a good idea that catches on and spreads itself rapidly throughout the population seemingly like a cold or virus.

The idea was, for the marxists, to try to come up with these "idea viruses" so that their ideas would become popular. The converse is true, too, that they would try to eliminate any of the other sides "idea viruses" so that they wouldn't spread.

Maybe google and others are doing this. It seems pretty much like human nature accelerated by technology to me.
