Is this a joke? Considering Google is a glorified data mining company I'm going to have to disagree
- SerLava 10y agoWell hey, if your data is private to everyone other than Google, guess who wins?

- Arnt 10y agoMarketing to friends of your existing customers is a natural goal, right? And Google has that data for maybe half of humanity, in its gmail archive. A highly saleable commodity. But try to make Google sell you either that gmail contact data or anything equivalent.
- Ajedi32 10y agoDepends on what you mean by privacy. If a computer program collects information about you to determine what products you might be interested in, but never reveals that information to anyone but yourself (by showing you ads related to those interests), is that information still private? I would argue that it is.

- benologist 10y agoThey care about not sharing your privacy with anyone except themselves and anyone accompanying them.
