Google's a dumb ass company and I strongly suspect them to be Americas replacement to the echolon program mainly due to the timing.
Seems profits getting a bit more relevant than intelligence to them these days.
Yeah I'd rather go without YouTube than deal with the ads at this point they went ridiculous with it a long time ago.
All I really know is the same month America said it was cancelling echolon is Google suddenly appeared everywhere.
Granted I may be paranoid but I've always seen Google as the American Government.
