I am glad to see someone, even if it is a competitor to Google, raising important questions about the data Google captures. The amount of data Google collects about users is quite simply of unimaginable scale. Who sees this information at Google? Are they able to identify an individual and browse or analyse their online activity (which for millions of people will include some of their most personal and private details)? Who has access to this data should be stated clearly in Google's Privacy Policy [1]. Instead we have this vague and generic paragraph: "We restrict access to personal information to Google employees, contractors, and agents who need that information in order to process it. Anyone with this access is subject to strict contractual confidentiality obligations and may be disciplined or terminated if they fail to meet these obligations." I'll repeat that this is a company that holds the private and personal online behaviour of millions of people, and yet the only detail they reveal about who sees that data internally and which user details are exposed is the purposefully vague and unspecific paragraph above. The fact that the "tech community" has never chosen to challenge Google on their internal usage of people data shows how little developers care about privacy (as this thread amply demonstrates).
