I have my reservations about google and their omnipresent hunger and capability to consume my personal information(and what that may mean in the future for privacy etc), but they really seem to do a bang-up job when it comes to pushing for reforms to secure and implementing tools that are helpful for securing, the web; browsing and otherwise.

That's just the natural effect of being both a search and browser monopoly. Either branch of their company is capable of forcing the entire Internet to comply with their will if they want to remain findable and accessible.

Of course, there's two sides to that coin.

I think his point was that it's great that they're using that power to push for better security measures which benefit everyone.
