“SAN FRANCISCO - Google Inc.'s privacy practices are the worst among the Internet’s top destinations, according to a watchdog group seeking to intensify the recent focus on how the online search leader handles personal information about its users.”
And Microsoft is not indifferent to some good old Google-bashing, it is their main competitor in monopoly-land. OK, Google is sitting on a lot of data, but so has other parties. If you do not like it, do not go out on the Internet, because then you know what the game is!. Here in Europe now-a-days you cannot get your groceries anymore without mentioning your zip code and the number that is on your door, else you won’t get any rebate.
Privacy International is about as impartial on their slant towards Google as
AOL was when they criticized Microsoft for offering their free Browser and protesting it’s integration.
If any one ever install the AOhelL package and then tried to uninstall it,
they would know what sloppy integration is all about.
