  • This does sound like it is in fact Russia that is paranoid, a lot of recent Russian behaviour makes sense if you think of them as a cornered and scared animal. Russia has somehow become convinced that the NATO powers want to destroy them when in reality I think NATO wants nothing more than to ignore Russia. Perhaps this actually is what Russia fears, not destruction but to be overlooked and the loss of its former position in the world, a position that was always largely an illusion.






  • Do you think Google is proud of this work, do you think the people working on double serving ads feel pride in their ‘experimentations’. In their personal time and at the end of their lives will they be happy they took things people liked and made them worse, even unusable for their money. That their only contribution was to scrawl their mess over that of others. Do they cling to the idea that it makes delivery free at the point of use as they make far more from their low practices than they would from honest subscriptions. Are they glad that their living makes the world more mundane. Happy to mar the endeavours of humanity, and as we push into space and maybe meet other intelligences ours will be the only ships with ads for toilet rolls on the outside. And throughout all of this shame the kicker is we would buy toilet rolls anyway.
