So I don't know if you guys already know that our beloved friend Google has created a Botnet.
What is a Botnet? That's easy. A botnet is a collection of internet-connected programs communicating with other similar programs in order to perform tasks. This can be as mundane as keeping control of an IRC channel, or it could be used to send spam email or participate in DDoS attacks. The word botnet stems from the two words robot and network.

Now you can do a research. And let me tell you this. You'll read or even hear a lot of advantages and disadvantages. But this is clearly an infringement of Privacy. The way I see it is... it is actually like a DOS-attack (denial of service). This is a method that most advanced hackers use to retrieve data from a victim. Maybe this next image will give you a good visual image.

I hope this gives you a good image. I'm not going to waste more words on this. Just know what you are doing. And remember, to do something you must primarily focus on the future consequences of your future actions.
