Google is on the public internet, you know.


I deposit money in my bank. My bank is located in Bank Street. Therefore, I have dumped my money in the street.


In bank street. You have dumped the money in bank street. yes.

The huge difference between Internet and the street- and by street i actually mean the safe of the bank, is the ease to steal from the Internet undetected.

Good luck stealing from the bank undetected. You see, they'd have to sneak in and still for example, 0.1cts from random accounts.

Easy electronically. Impossible physically.

The Internet is not nearly as well protected as the physical world AND it doesn't leave traces.

It's like making an analogy to everything + cars. It just doesn't make any sense. Sorry.
