I had no knowledge of this infringement until today.
This series is an eye-opener.
This series is an eye-opener.
Based on the true story of Two German computer pioneers who go to court to be recognized as the real inventors of the 'Google Earth' algorithm. One of the best courtroom dramas with amazing performances and brilliant technical details but it is the story and execution that everyone should witness. Highly recommended! ❤
The show tells an unexpected story about the people who were the original brains behind Google Earth invention and the result of corporations stealing and using other people ideas ... Remember when Apple bought Mouse patent for 1000$ from Xerox, well that's a very similar story... Honestly it's great such stories come out of nowhere , not only you learn so much about an everyday thing you use, but it can completely catch you by surprise... Cheers to the original devs, if not for you I'd be hiking much less...
This series was not drawn out. It had subplots and great character development. Based on true story of terra earth being around for 5 yrs when google stole it. I was hoping to see Netlist mentioned in the series as their memory saved google 1/2 electric cost and got search results in 1/2 the time. This gave them unfair advantage over other search engines. Everything google achieved was only because they stole, cheated and lied to get there. Squashing small startups daily. This 4 part series gives a great picture of what I'm talking about. Presented not as a documentary but rather a true story drama. I didn't get lost, or bored, or confused at all. Hope people watch this short series!
