> The point of the survey is to test whether or not people are aware of what google is doing with their data, not whether or not they're okay with it. I'm not sure that's true. From the article itself: "DCN surveyed a nationally representative sample to find out what people expect from Google — and, as with a similar study we conducted last year about Facebook, the results were unsettling." Since the notion of "expect" is baked into the purpose, I think some manner of "okay with it" is fundamental to the survey. (Because when people don't expect something, that's usually not okay.)
