Which gives further proof that my earlier statement rings true:
You don't get to have Privacy on the Internet. It's a fallacy. You
have
to work really hard to truly have privacy on the 'net. And lie a lot.
I'm not naive enough to think all privacy policies reflect what a
company is actually doing, but I'm surprised that people think Google
protects their privacy at the same time they practically admitting
they're selling your digital soul to whoever will pay for it. Hell, all
you gmail users on this list right now are feeding the machine with all
our data.
The part that gets me: everyone seems happy with this.
