I'm not surprised that GOOG is buying a huge home security company. It advances the prevailing narrative in the US. One in which pervasive state surveillance of it's own citizens is normalized, and the line separating the corporate world from the government is increasingly blurry.
This is dark, and it is presented as inevitable. Which, I suppose, it is. Look at the synergy!
