So... what does google do after they reach the letter Z? Does the world end? Dave999, I see countdown potential here!)

The world as you know IT Will end. Is just a question of...Same With android/iOS. The two events might be connect or totally separated. The government might be responsible, or aliens. Or a combination of government and aliens.

is "IT" the word "it" or does it stand for Information Technology? Regardless, this is getting scary... Are we counting down to a Brave New World?

You can read it as "Information Technology War".

I still hope that if/when we do get an apocalypse... that it would be fought with big Mecha's in a stunning anime fashion.

Interestingly...there was just an interesting article on the state of ai and robotics and the fact that what the future holds are machines that will be virtually unstoppable...as things stand now ..shoot a leg or legs off...try to impair it's functioning in any way...and the thing very very rapidly assesses how to work with the impairment and continue...altering it's gait, balance ..everything... to accommodate and follow through with it's purpose.
If machines in the future are turned on us...it won't be an apocalypse that'll be fun-fun-joy-joy-super-cool to see....won't matter how big the gun or how many rounds you got.
We could only wish for Pacific Rim

I worked for a decade with Japanese software companies and even they themselves would admit that innovation was lacking.

We have smartphones today. I would think that in ten years time we won't or they'll be as unfashionable as a Nokia dumbphone. We'll have something else and the something else won't come out of China. I'd be very surprised if it's not USAian with Europeans having already invented it but been utterly rubbish at convincing the world they need it. And then copied by someone in China. That's generally how history works.
