How is that different to microsoft logging your keystrokes or google reading your email? Having to deal with old fashioned employee espionage seems quaint.

- jeffbee 6y agoMost people can tell the difference between an activity that provides a clear benefit, like classifying my emails, and one that provides no personal benefit, such as selling mass surveillance as a service to the highest bidder. If you can’t tell the difference than your ethical framework isn’t serving you.
- friendlybus 6y agoI don't know what you mean. Snowden docs showed google moving domestic US data to the UK and back again so the data is considered foreign and thus readable by spy agencies. The ability for google to legally and materially read my emails transcends law, classifying emails and my knowledge. Ethics doesnt even start when its done outside society. Advertising is second order financial gain derived from their absolute power over retained information. There's a bigger picture.
