They do know what a Gigabyte is. It also seems they know what a gibibyte is and that the customer's probably don't. (Very true) 2^30 is a gibibyte. How about "Google mixes up Gibibyte with Gigabyte" as a proper title, yesh.

iwr: I started to question that a while ago. I think the biggest reason that people go there to make public the information is the "Publicity" it gets. Think about it. You hear the word "Wikileaks" and you exactly what is going to follow.
Personally, I think people should be uploading to systems/programs like FreeNet and have that pass around up there. Then start using media (mediums?) on the web as a way to move it around faster. For instance, (and of course the irony of it) bit torrenting could be used as a medium.
