Does this apply to self censorship in China so people there cannot find information on democracy and freedom of expression through Google?

I really don't understand the words coming out of his mouth. Democratizing information when in fact it's being severely censored in autocratic regimes.

Why doesn't he invest all his billions to free opressed people all over the world so they can all have three healthy meals a day and receive education to understand what Google really is.

I love Google but please, stop the demagoguery and political nonsense. It makes you look bad to those that are really oppressed and would like to live freely in a democratic society which a lot of us take for granted.

The more people use the Internet, the more eyeballs Google Search gets and their billions increase. Earlier Microsoft preached that the PC is all pervasive (even as more and more people are using cellphones and smart computing devices) so that they can continue selling their obsolete operating systems and spreadsheets. Google is following in the same footsteps in the Internet domain.

Mr. Schmidt owes his success largely to a global network of mobster fiends is what I hear from rival mafia. They say it was him that was directly responsible for the colosal profits made from promoting child pornography with the Google search engine.
