Google Private Internet
Rumors continue to leak out that Google is building their own internet network. The application could be just an “Akamai” like content delivery service or maybe Google has more ambitious motives of their own private network?
Google is working on a project to create its own global internet protocol (IP) network, a private alternative to the internet controlled by the search giant, according to sources who are in commercial negotiation with the company. Last month, Google placed job advertisements in America and the British national press for “Strategic Negotiator candidates with experience in...identification, selection, and negotiation of dark fibre contracts both in metropolitan areas and over long distances as part of development of a global backbone network”.
