"Botnet" is just a pejorative nod against Alphabet and the fact that, for all intents and purposes, it controls your computer quite a bit. It is not a real botnet.
Idk, just seems like an odd word choice when it's obviously not a botnet.
And it doesn't control your computer. It spies on you a lot but it doesn't actually control your computer.
