  • leave it to faux to fear monger a great way to live more earth friendly. Dont like it, faux?? WELL THEN DO SOMETHING BETTER!!!!!! (jack wad$)

  • leave it to Faux to polarize this, and do a bad job of it.

  • Ugh. Deinterlace that video, man! =P

  • Smart Meter, no thanks!

    A tyrannical government could issue carbon ration cards, they already want to tax the air we breath. The ultimate government goal, in my opinion, is rationing. Dept of Energy also required the ability to remotely shut off your power.The utility company may have a goal of implementing a mind numbing, complex, tiered pricing model that will extract the maximum profit from the uninformed customer. How else do you extract more profits from a relatively fixed customer base?

  • The government could use targeted power shut off to meet emission goals or more devious objectives like selective punishment for dissenting citizens. Look at what they did in California recently, shutting off the water to an agricultural community to save a minnow, then opening the flood gates after certain legislators agreed to vote in favor of nationalized health care. The ability to cherry pick any US household and instantaneously shut off the power with a single key stroke is our new reality

  • It is an opt in, you don't have to share the information, take off the tinfoil hats - especially when the smart people know lead hats are so much more effective. I love Google PowerMeter!

  • Knowing what energy I use can save me THOUSANDS of dollars. Fox News (I still like Fox for most news) always gets a nut-job that comes up with a whacked out perspective, like James Grimmelmann. The fact that google has so many data centers running 24/7 is the very reason they are trying to develop a system to track energy usage for everyone, even themselves. Shees. Associate Professor... means he's at the bottom of the heap, and had nothing better to do than show up on Fox.

  • honestly does fox have to make everything sound like an evil take-over plan from communists. Google is making everything better and trying to help people save money. lighten up fox.
