MPAA threatens to disconnect Google from the Internet

Over the last few months, Google has received more than 100 copyright infringement warnings from MPAA-affiliated movies studios: most are directed at users of Google's public Wi-Fi service but others are meant for Google employees. The MPAA is thus warning the search giant that it might get disconnected from the Internet.

....good luck with that. Would be awesome if google made all searches for MPAA to redirect to goatse
 
It'll never happen. They're just empty threats. It would be an absolutely PR nightmare for anyone that's involved in shutting down Google.

I agree. But I must ask, what if Google was shut down? Perhaps for a week. How much do you all think the web would change?

Would all service providers/web hosts start killing in wholesale some of their customer's sites and pages? I mean, it is something that will never happen, but suppose it did . . . What message would it send to others?

How would the web change?

When you're as big as Google has become, lawsuits and other legal challenges become just another daily activity... business as usual. The scariest scenario for them would be if people stopped doing such things. That would signal the end of their reign. Everyone aims for the guy on top.
