This is some true believer shit.

Google launched less than thirty years ago.

At the current rate of deterioration, it's not exactly certain to what extent the planet will be able to sustain human life, much less whether a much loathed spyware company will still be around to pay the bills.

Is Google "much loathed"? It's thanks to Google that the world's largest browser engine and operating system are both open source. Yes we can list bad things they've done but they've also done a lot of good.
