  Sad that G+ has gone? Could be worse. From Facebook: Julian Bond shared a link . Founding Member, Google+ Meetup · May 19 at 11:49 PM Sad that G+ has gone? Could be worse. You could have a Huawei phone and be blocked from Google updates. Or even worse than that, be a kidnapped Huawei Princess. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2019/may/19/google-huawei-trump-blacklist-report https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/06/world/canada/huawei-meng-wanzhou-arrest.html ...

Julian Bond It's not entirely clear yet the effect on existing phones. This may be about full release updates for the OS (eg from 8.1 to 9.0) rather than just not getting a Maps update. And to...

Originally shared by Jessica Meyer Good Bye Hi, plussers! It is very sad that we have to say good bye here, it's still hard to believe Google killed Google+, a shame! How can #Google lose something with such potential.. again! It seems they need better people working for them. It was wonderful while it lasted.. specially at the beginning when we had more tools available. Let's keep in touch ok? I have had a great time here, with amazing circlers, and would love to see you all again! At the moment I'm more active on #Minds, but I've also created an account on #YouMe today to try it out, and I also have #Twitter. Add me! Farewell.. https://www.minds.com/JessicaMeyer https://www.youme.social/-JessicaMeyer https://twitter.com/jessy_meyer https://www.minds.com/JessicaMeyer

Well worth following Originally shared by Filip H.F. “FiXato” Slagter Google+ Exodus Collection If you want to follow just my posts about the shutdown of Google+, my ongoing development of the Plexodus-Tools set of export / migration utilities, and other news related to the Google+ Exodus, but aren't interested in my other content such as my photography and multimedia interests, you can either follow my account and unfollow individual Collections, or solely follow my Google+ Exodus Collection. :) Since it's at 1936 followers, I'm kinda curious if we can reach 2000 before this place is torched to the ground. ;) #Plexodus #Google #GooglePlus #GPlus #GooglePlusExodus #GooglePlusShutdown #Goofle #2April2019 #FollowFriday #ShamelessPlug #MassMigration #SocialMedia

Even if we choose our platforms wisely, this sort of thing will happen to us Migrators, wherever we go. Originally shared by Jeff Diver Just FYI as if things were not interesting enough around G+! Some Google traffic was rerouted via Russia, China and Nigeria. Nigeria?! Here's the lead from the article: "Google users experienced connectivity issues yesterday when online traffic destined for Google services was rerouted through networks in Russia, China, and Nigeria. While the incident has since been resolved, Google has launched an investigation to determine its cause." #Google+ #Google https://www.darkreading.com/vulnerabilities---threats/google-traffic-temporarily-rerouted-via-russia-china/d/d-id/1333257?_mc=NL_DR_EDT_DR_daily_20181114&cid=NL_DR_EDT_DR_daily_20181114&elq_mid=87733&elq_cid=25366403
