Seriously, does ANYONE think that having Google run a cloud computing network for the government is a good idea?

the gov has strict regulations on what it will use, so i imagine google is creating a separate infrastructure just for this. it is probably also using private connections to the datacenters and not just internet access like the rest of us. i could be completely wrong though, since i didn't read the whole article.

Before making a decision like that, surely they will consult with Al Gore, since he did invent the Internets. :lol
