Google To Stop Describing Games With In-App Purchases As 'Free' World Bank wants water privatized, despite risks. Humans can survive weeks without food, but only days without water — in some conditions, only hours.
It may sound clichéd, but it’s no hyperbole: Water is life. So what happens when private companies control the spigot?
