Default Google Spying?

Why is google investing so much money in satellites? Why is google taking pictures of everything and compiling it in google earth? Why is google offering free email?

Google is investing so much into satellites because they are spying on the world. Google created gmail, to monitor what people are discussing. I am not sure what the purpose is for all of this....

It is normal to have paranoid thoughts sometimes, just don't get obsessed about it. Heightened state of self-consciousness may be prevalent among teenagers and is often caused by social anxiety.

Google's multi-million strategy is simple: provide something for free, but put an ad on it. The advertisements on Google are auto-generated and are very benign. Another example is lol cats website: http://icanhascheezburger.com/ It has really funny stuff for free, but has ads that give nice profit. Please relax, nobody is spying on you

And even if they are, what would they do with that info? Most of what they would find out isn't worthwhile information.

Just because you are paranoid doesn't mean that they aren't out to get you.

Paranoia manifests in ridiculously intelligent people who don't have all the facts.
Also the people tend to be ridiculously handsome as well.

Is true. But what is Google Earth's true purpose.
I suspect Google Earth is a surveyor preparing earth for the almighty galactic devourer Googletron.
I did not copy some Galactus/Silver Surfer idea there. Nope.

The funny thing is, when I look at some of the areas where I live, the images are several years old. Trees where there is now a new housing developement or a new school.
