Sherri quotes from a Google ad which reads:
“Over 60% of the U.S. state governments have gone Google.”
Yes, Google told Sherri, this refers to the cloud: “Google hosts the data in our data centers, relieving the customer or gov agency of the burden of managing their own servers in house.”
Sherri asks: “Does this mean that we’ve now handed the majority of our state governments’ operational data to a single privately-controlled company which has well-publicized partnerships with other governments such as China?”
She adds: “To me, this is an unacceptable level of control for a single private company to have over federal, state or local government. When you reach a point where the government cannot operate without a private company, then the private company has effectively gained control of the government.”
