Google Dashboard

FairDoos · 11-05-2009, 02:28 PM

Ive just been watching the news and Google have released an app that saves all your data on the internet without you even asking? It saves your history your GMail emails, Youtube Details, Youtube Hostory but i dont think thats right i dont want it to save my information thanks.

Whats your views on this?

Just seems odd that there keeping information without telling us then storing it when we dont want them to i anything it should be turned into and application of choice.

all kidding aside.
places like google and thousands of others is nice. BUT there has always been a price to pay. Google did not create a search engine because they love us. they will get something out of it. The radio report this morning mentioned that they do and will turn over to authority if they think it is deceitful. Then again i think your provider will also. if requested from law. (im positive).

The part of "Users of Google Latitude, the service that broadcasts your current posistion to approved contacts, are shown the last desination logged" creeps me out -- i no tht only approved people can look but still.... there are hackers out there. they could look on everything on tht its stupid really... :/
