WTF! No sign up or anything! Just a fucking email telling me I’m using it?

Fuck you Google!

I remember distinctly looking for a picture for a shit post, then I magically subscribed to having my data at their disposal? What the ever living fuck. Google will regret this move.

    Right but to what end? People who write that seem to be saying “I am smart enough to know where their name came from but the company itself doesn’t even know!”

    Which they obviously did know. It was a branding decision and frankly a good one, entirely unrelated to the horrible things Google actually does. And it’s just confusing to write it that way for people who don’t know.

      I dont think that is exactly what they are doing though. Maybe it’s something like the guy that juat uses þ in all their text.

        Right, I am sincerely curious why. That was just a guess since I can’t make sense of it otherwise so far.
