Google announced the second version of its OnHub router today and it kind of looks like a miniature version of a nuclear power plant cooling tower. I mean, it even has a radioactive glow at the bottom:
While nuclear power is not exactly hot (ho ho) after Three Mile Island, Chernobyl and Fukushima, the subtle shape may not trigger alarm bells for those not exposed (!) to the iconic look of a cooling tower. And it could have been worse. Google could have made it look like a fire hydrant or erect penis. An erect penis with a radioactive glow.
