I love seeing this story… it reminds me of 30 years ago when I worked in the telephone industry. Heard about telephone copmanies rolling out service in very very rural areas - running signals over barbed-wire fences because it was too expensive to run dedicated cables. That did degrade the signal, but it worked.

I know it's a completely different thing entirely, but it just gave me nostalgia remembering hearing about that.

The good folks in the USA have lost faith in the USA. Alas, the bad folks remain in power. heh

It's worth saying again: Google can fuck itself.

And I generally like Google's products. But they make plenty of money off of my data to say: Fuck Google.
