> I don't want my stream filled with junk the way my Facebook stream is.
I always wondered why the Google+ team didn't implement that from the get go but after reading that, that's probably the biggest reason as to why they haven't.
It's a not very thinly-veiled shot at frictionless sharing and the like.
Having seen the hellhole my Facebook stream has become (while I've tried hard, it's almost impossible not to end up with unintended consequences for Apps and such), I'm on Vic's side.
