Google Pixel Launch [LIVE]
compare this launch to a SpaceX launch, or an Apple event.<p>it looks like a required university course at 8am. the background is not of the greatest resolution. the presenters are deadpan. the crowd is, less than enthusiastic.<p>last thought, google just went all in on the business model of &quot;eroding personal privacy&quot; to &quot;capture value to increase shareholder value&quot;. the presenters are continuously driving home the point that the &quot;google assistant is at the center of it all&quot;. there is zero pretension of your data remaining your data. HN is constantly having spirited conversations around Snowden and related revelations, but then seems to give a pass or benignly ignoring google&#x27;s steady erosion of user privacy.
