The art project GWEI (= Google Will Eat Itself) has been fully censored by Google, which means it has been removed from all Google Search-Indexes worldwide. <\/p>\n
The idea behind GWEI is simple:<\/p>\n
Google Will Eat Itself generates money by serving Google text advertisments on a network of hidden Websites. With this money GWEI automatically buy Google shares. GWEI buys Google via their own advertisment. Google eats itself – but in the end \u201a\u00c4\u00fawe\u201a\u00c4\u00f9 own it. By establishing this autocannibalistic model we deconstruct the new global advertisment mechanisms by rendering them into a surreal click-based economic model. After this process GWEI hands over the common ownership of \u201a\u00c4\u00faour\u201a\u00c4\u00f9 Google Shares to the GTTP Ltd. [Google To The People Public Company] which distributes them back to the users (clickers) \/ public.<\/p>\n
Let’s break the silence and put a link to this project on our sites and blogs: http:\/\/www.gwei.org<\/a>. Give Google back to people! GWEI is an interesting case how to imagine a new global public sphere. How to reverse privatization and rethink a truely public Internet without the Googles and Yahoos.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
