"nothing to hide -> nothing to fear" is a misdirection. It gets the enemy to waste time arguing against something that is obvioulsy stupid.

Google's primary objective is not money, but information gathering and control. The move to Google+ is a centralisation of the information repository. Google Glass is an attempt at getting more detailed personal information. The autonomous vehicle development is for them to control your vehicle.

Ryan said: "it’s not some political statement about free and open source software"

Free and open source software is not motivated by politics, but by a development strategy to get as many people as possible to find and fix bugs.

Free software is politically motivated, by the love for freedom and the hate for slavery. If freedom matters to a person, it will matter to him whether he uses Linux, Microsoft or Apple.
