The problem with figuring out what the command line wants is that the command line wants nothing, its just a machine with no desires doing as it is told.
Also you still have to figure out what Google "wants" if you are looking for a specific item of information.
Furthermore have you re-organized your filesystem, formatted a hard-drive, or done a multitude of tasks other than run a google search from the google command line.
The command line has far more functionality and google can be incorporated into it.
Yes it does as a similar but distinctly different economic system to capitalism.
There is also the sort of capitalism where capital and those with it are thought to be more right or more intelligent/influential/good than those without. That could be called almost a worship of capital.
I think lions, tigers, hyenas, polar bears, pumas, and a multitude of other predator species would disagree with you on that if they had the intellect to disagree.
Indeed they did. Every book that I can recall had as a central plot element one of the laws failing to properly allow for a given situation or being broken or twisted in some way.
The banks were not supplying those things because that was not the profit model for those making the decisions in the banks, at least the major decisions that ultimately mattered.
Those people did extremely well, those CEOs gained huge payments, and already are rebounding after this stumble, even if that rebound means their companies going under.
These bankers are triumphs of our system. They made millions, billions of profits for very little work. They did things far smarter, on their own, and are reaping the profits.
Not really, as with the advent of DRM the level of control has gone down.
DRM often takes away options for reasonable Fair Use such as backing up the data so bought. This while the prices for the data remain unchanged, and high relative to the costs of production.
There is still download and threat of viruses with Hulu. You are connected to the internet and content which runs on your computer is downloaded; so a virus could come through.
The boss should be the boss, the customer should be the customer, and the staff should be the staff. Each working towards their own ends and their own reasons but each with a reasonable accommodation for the others' goals and place in the organization.
Except whichever one you like means all options are the same.
Also note all those options are already getting money from the government. One agency(I'd need to look it up) gave an estimate that 60% of all healthcare in the US was paid for by the government. That does include military and the Gov employees health benefits.

A better word than those of "customer" and "product" used to describe Google's/Wolfram's customers might be "Patrons."
They are customers, the price is just $0.00 for the initial use, other charges(including legal ones) may be accrued from there.

That's like saying "socialism" or "communism" has been around as long as the practice of sharing.
The use of monetary trade is not the same as Capitalism.
Bears, are Godless killing machines and not natural at all!
They have been inciting the other creatures of the world against us, and we must work to push back their influence.

Yes but the robots still won't be making the decisions. They will be following orders given to them by humans in the form of their programming.
Robots are notoriously incapable at estimating conditional probabilities.
For a computer to do its estimate the probabilities have to be fed to it through a human programmer.
If the organization is a business then the customer certainly has a place, if the business wants to stay open.
Paying your dollar, is the reasonable accommodation.

That alter is to Tiamat, the Great Serpent Mother and you know it!

Capitalism is a very recent development and was not really around in the days of Guttenberg.

Really?
No the customer should not be the boss.

Exactly. Wikileaks is the premier inflammatory doc hosting site out there.
There is a system for subverting the system and you should use that system!
It is just a draft. Why not write your congressman or appropriate entity and ask them to look into it.

Ever heard of safe deposit boxes? Goto a local bank, check out their fees(might be too much for what you want) and they are generally secure.
They may not give you access to the cabinet.
Also that had better be a long circuit or else it will be in the same building.
Though for many businesses that are located all in one or two buildings if the building itself goes the backup won't matter.
Backing up is about spreading out risk.
The more copies there are of the data floating around the better generally, also the more secure each copy is the better.
Also your scheme involves tape the classic off-line backup method.
In the end every backup scheme has a failure rate and it is a matter of how good do you need it to be.
