The 24h limit is quite the contrast to what happens when you, as a customer, use their products:
Around every corner there is a dialog which asks for permission to store extremely personal data, such as your GPS location or browsing history, indefinitely.
See how much Google values its users safety vs. its own safety...
- CydeWeys 4y agoIf you click the button to delete that data, though, it is actually deleted.
- colordrops 4y agoIs it though? Who knows how Google has crafted their language and legal loopholes to "technically" delete your data in one way while retaining it in another? And that doesn't even get into things like PRISM.

- vkou 4y agoPRISM was a web portal that the NSA used to serve NSLs, FISA court orders, and other requests for information to tech firms. It wasn't an all-seeing eye of Sauron that had full access to their backends.
- colordrops 4y agoYour characterization is not accurate. Please reference the government slides themselves: https://nsa.gov1.info/dni/prism.html https://nsa.gov1.info/dni/prism.html
- vkou 4y agoNothing in those slides contradicts me. The PRISM vs Upstream slide makes it very clear that PRISM requests are done through the front door, because PRISM-to-vendor communication is 'laundered' through the FBI.
- CydeWeys 4y agoRetaining data that you said you had deleted is a major liability, especially now with GDPR.
