The term only serves to hide the only real country climbing power of those 4 or 5 that is rising as a global hegemony. And we all know who it is. The other countries are just decorative.

Bothinho..it's only if you used their “free chargers and USB memory stick.” Free comes with a high cost.
Google, facebook etc etc has no choice to do what Brazilian government requiers them to do, because they are full aware that the Brazilian market is to big to ignore. It just cost them more money and they hate that....duhhhh.
My Dear Fido, I realize that.

Meeting the host concierge usually jet-lagged, one is provided such items. You think “ How thoughtful ” and later use it. According to online reports, no one caught this until well AFTER the G-20 had ended.
I do admire the ingenuity used in this application. Very clever. And as you say, free, but at a cost.
I can't help but feel that this is all a big way to fill up newspaper space.
Oct 30th, 2013 - 10:15 am - Link - Report abuse 0Let's face reality, everyone wants to spy on everyone else, everyone couches it in more diplomatic language (like “keeping an eye on things” or “research”) when they're spying on their friends.
The only people who don't spy on anyone are those who don't have the resources to do it.
