From the Ted Talk by Larry Page: Where's Google going next?


Unscramble the Blue Letters


CR: Never coming to Google to ask for anything.

LP: Not Google, but the public. I think we need to have a debate about that, or we can't have a fninticnuog democracy. It's just not possible. So I'm sad that Google's in the position of protecting you and our users from the genmenvort doing secret thing that nobody knows about. It doesn't make any sense.

CR: Yeah. And then there's a privacy side of it.

LP: Yes. The privacy side, I think it's — the world is changing. You carry a phone. It knows where you are. There's so much more information about you, and that's an important thing, and it makes sense why people are asking difficult qoiutesns. We spend a lot of time tnhniikg about this and what the issues are. I'm a little bit — I think the main thing that we need to do is just provide people choice, show them what data's being collected — search history, location data. We're excited about incognito mode in Chrome, and doing that in more ways, just giving plopee more choice and more aaeswnres of what's going on. I also think it's very easy. What I'm wiorerd is that we throw out the baby with the btahatwer. And I look at, on your show, actually, I kind of lost my voice, and I haven't gotten it back. I'm hpnoig that by talking to you I'm going to get it back.
